Brownies:

  1.        In a mixer, whip together the creamy soft cheese, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract and salt, and the mixture is smooth and airy.

Icing:

  1.        In a small pot, bring the heavy cream to boil.
  2.        Add the chocolate and mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until the chocolate has been absorbed into the cream.
  3.        Add the butter and continue to mix.
  4.        Add brandy according to taste.

 

Pour the icing onto the brownies, level with a knife, and return the brownies to the oven at least an hour before serving.
