5 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
1/2 cup raspberry preserves

Melt the butter and chocolate in a heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from the heat. Whisk in the sugar, eggs and vanilla. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Add to the chocolate mixture and whisk to blend. Stir in the nuts.

Spoon the remaining batter over the preserves. Let stand for 20 minutes at room temperature to thaw.
