Beat eggs at medium speed with an electric mixer until thick and lemon colored; gradually add sugar, beating well. Add salt, flour, vanilla, and chocolate mixture; beat at low speed 1 minute. Spoon mixture into slightly greased and floured 13x9x2-inch pan. Bake 25-30 minutes or until a knife in the center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes.
