  • I wonder if you can help. My brownie tray bake has only just made it out of the aga it took much longer than it should have. I am shattered though and need to go to bed.

    Would anyone be able to let me know how best to cool it and cover it.

    Would it sweat if I put foil on top. Grease proof paper?

    Many thanks

    I would wrap a clean cotton tea towel round it.

    Just laid a tea towel over a batch of carrot cup cakes and a tea loaf as really CBA to do anything else with them. Doing Cakefest (basically covering the dining table with a bunch of cakes and having a drop in for friends instead of a more formal 'birthday party') for DD's birthday on Sunday so will be baking a-plenty til then.

    I'd just cover it with a biit of baking paper and leave it. It cuts far better when cold anyway, and you really want a nice crust to form on the top I use a very thin wire from an old cheese cutter to cut up brownies neatly.Better than a knife unless you have a very sharp on

    I'd leave it as it is.. or if you cant bear to just put a clean tea towel over it. I regularly leave stuff in the oven to cool overnight.

    I tend to put things like this in the microwave. Kids get up before me...
