Step 1
Melt butter and chocolate together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth.
Step 2
Whisk sugar and eggs into the chocolate mixture until well combined, then add vanilla extract.
Step 3
Sift cocoa powder, flour, and salt into the bowl and fold until no dry streaks remain—don't overmix.
Step 4
Pour batter into a parchment-lined 8×8-inch baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 5
Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes until set but still fudgy in the center.
Step 6
Cut into 9 squares and serve immediately. The centers should still feel slightly warm and gooey.
