-Cool to lukewarm
-While waiting, whisk or sift together flour, cocoa, salt, and baking powder in another bowl
-Stir the sugar and vanilla into the chocolate/butter mixture
-Add eggs to chocolate/butter mixture 1 at a time, mixing well between each addition, then stirring/beating until the batter is glossy and smooth
-Stir in flour mixture

*If you want to double the recipe, just use a 9” by 13” pan to bake it in and give it a bit longer, all will be well!!!
