3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) margarine (room temperature)
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided use
1 cup pecan halves
1 cup flaked coconut
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp. vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter 8-inch square pan.

Using electric mixer, beat eggs until foamy. Add sugar and beat until fluffy. Beat in margarine until blended. Stir in 1 cup chips, pecans, coconut, flour, cocoa powder and vanilla. Pour into pan.

Bake until just set but still very moist, approximately 20 minutes.
