Preparation

  5. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  6. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt, then fold into the wet mixture until just combined.
  8. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
  9. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Baking

  2. Allow to cool in the pan on a wire rack before slicing into squares.
