In a large bowl, combine the granulated sugar and large eggs. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium-high speed for 3-5 minutes, or until it becomes light in color, thick, and creamy, and has significantly increased in volume.

Add the all-purpose flour and salt to the wet ingredients. Gently fold the flour into the batter with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to tough brownies.
