  4. Sift in the flour and gently fold until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20–25 minutes until edges are set but center is soft.
  6. Allow brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
  7. Whip the chilled cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
  8. Spread the whipped cream mousse evenly over the cooled brownies and refrigerate for 30 minutes to set.
  9. Cut into squares and serve chilled or at room temperature.
