1/2 cup boiling water
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 13x9x2 inch baking pan with parchment paper with overhang for easy removal.

Stir together cocoa and baking soda in a large bowl.  Add in 1/3 cup melted butter and boiling water.  Stir until the mixture thickens.  Mix in sugar, eggs and remaining 1/3 cup melted butter and combine until smooth.  Add flour, vanilla and salt and blend thoroughly.  Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts and spread in a prepared pan.

Bake 35-40 minutes, or until brownies begin to pull away from sides of pan.  Cool completely in pan on a wire rack.  Cut into squares.
