Brownie Crust
Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a pizza pan with parchment paper.
In the bowl of your mixer, add the butter and sugar. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add vanilla and eggs and beat on medium speed for 1 minute.
In a medium bowl, combine the cocoa powder, flour and salt. Stir with a whisk to combine. Add flour mixture to butter mixture and beat just until combined.
Pour the batter onto the prepared pizza pan. Bake in the 350° oven for 16-18 minutes or until the brownie crust is completely set.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
