Melt chocolate and butter together in a saucepan over low/medium heat, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and cool slightly.
Whisk sugar, vanilla and salt into chocolate mixture.
Whisk in the eggs, one at a time.
Continue whisking mixture until it is shiny and smooth.
Add flour and whisk just until blended.
Pour batter into pan and level top with a spatula.

Option - buy a box of brownie mix!

Topping-
