   Then gently create the dry ingredients through the wet and rudder with policy until everything is mixed and you keep a cake batter. Scoop this in the baking tin, iron smooth and bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven. If you stick a satrep in the middle and it comes out dry, your cake is ready. Let the cake cool completely in the can.

   STEP 4

   Done

   Make the frosting by mixing the cream cheese with butter, icing sugar and vanilla extract in a bowl for a few minutes. Divide the frosting over the brownies and smooth the top. Leave covered for half an hour in the fridge before cutting brownies. Use a large knife that warms you first under the tap. Cuts nice rectangular or square brownies. Don't get too big 'cause they're pretty powerful.

   And are they good? Huge! I'm definitely gonna make them again and then I'm gonna make the frosting layer thinner and I'm gonna mix some lemon rasps for the freshness.
