Line a baking pan with parchment paper.

Melt dark chocolate and butter together in a heatproof bowl over simmering water until smooth.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Whisk in sugar until well combined.

Add eggs one at a time, whisking until fully incorporated after each addition.

Stir in cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and salt until just combined.

Fold in chopped walnuts, if using.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Allow to cool in the pan before cutting into squares.
