Step 7
Return the brownies to the oven for an additional 20 minutes.
Step 8
Remove from the oven once the topping has set (it might jiggle a little bit but there should be no visible liquid).
Step 9
Immediately put brownies in the fridge and leave for at least 8-10 hours, or overnight. (This step is optional but helps create a dense and fudgy texture - these brownies are not recommended to be consumed hot as they are too soft.)
