1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts) optional but not as good without them.

Beat sugar, eggs, softened butter, milk and vanilla well then add chocolate and mix.

Any bread made with chocolate is O.K. by me! Sounds wonderful, and I'll definitely give it a try.

Toni, do you melt both butters to mix with the cocoa?
This would be wonderful with a raspberry sauce.

Sharon sorry for the confusion, I amended the recipe to clear that up especially since I forgot to include that the softened butter was beaten together with the sugar, eggs, etc.
Thanks for catching that
I don't know about the raspberry sauce, I am probably one of the few people around who doesn't like raspberry
