- Melt chocolate and butter over very low heat, stirring until completely melted and combined.
- Remove from heat and stir in sugar.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract to the chocolate mixture, stirring constantly.
- Mix the flour with salt and yeast, add to the chocolate batter and mix to combine.
- Pour the batter into the greased and floured small rectangular baking pan (23x17 cm).
