    1/2 c  Butter; cut in pieces
    1/3 c  Sugar
      3 tb Orange juice
      1 ts Orange peel; grated

      2 c  Confectioners sugar
      1 ts Orange peel; grated
      1 ts Milk

      6 oz Semi-sweet chocolate morsels

  Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. With foil, line the bottom and sides
  of a 9" square baking pan, allowing foil to overhang slightly.
  Butter foil; set aside.

  On a square of wax paper, combine flour, baking powder and salt.

  In a small saucepan, combine chocolate morsels, butter, sugar and
  orange juice; cook and stir over very low heat until chocolate and
  butter are melted. Remove from heat. Stir in orange peel and
  vanilla. Using wire whisk, beat in eggs one at a time. Add reserved
  flour mixture, beating until smooth; stir in nuts, spread in
  prepared pan.

  Bake until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean,
  23-25 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Spread with Orange
  Cream. Using a knife, mark Chocolate Icing in 36 (1-1/2") squares.

  Refrigerate until icing is firm, (about 25 minutes or place in
  freezer for 5 minutes.) Lift foil edges to remove from pan. Cut in
  squares. Refrigerate up to 4 days or wrap and freeze up to 1 month.
