Chocolate layer:
 2 eggs
 1 cup sugar
 3/4 cup flour
 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
 1/8 tsp salt
 1/4 cup cocoa
 1/2 cup butter or margarine
 Beat eggs 'til foamy.  Add sugar, flour, nuts, and salt.  Melt cocoa and 
 butter together in saucepan.  Add to egg mixture and blend well.  Spread in 
 greased 9 x 13 pan.  Set aside.
 Butterscotch layer:
 1/2 cup butter or margarine
 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
 2 eggs
 2 tsp vanilla
 1 1/2 cups flour
 1/4 tsp salt
 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
 Cream butter and brown sugar.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Beat until well 
 mixed.  Add flour, salt, and nuts.  Spoon over chocolate layer in small 
 blobs, and spread as best you can.
 Bake at 350 F (or 180 C) for 30 minutes 'til brownies begin to pull away 
 from pan.
 Note:  I usually do it opposite so that I can use one bowl, and they're just 
 as yummy.  My family hates walnuts, so I never get to taste them in these, 
 though I bet they would be *wonderful* (poor Mom -- she's always 
 sacrificing -- can't you just hear those violins playin'...).
 I bet just the butterscotch part would be yummy baked in a 9 x 9 or 8 x 8 
 pan.  I'm going to go home and try it (maybe *with* walnuts) because that's 
 my favorite part.
