Note from Ricardo

Follow this tip for making brownies: the nose knows. As soon as you can smell the brownies, you should begin to monitor them closely. When the edges of the cake are firm and crisp, remove the brownies from the oven, even if the centre may seem a bit soft. Let it rest on the counter at room temperature for 2 hours. This is the secret to perfectly crispy outside and soft inside brownies.
