Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a saucepan over low heat, melt together the chopped chocolate and butter until smooth; let cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract; add the melted chocolate mixture.
In another bowl, sift flour, cocoa powder, and salt; fold into the wet mixture until just combined.
