Pour and spread about 1 1/3 cups mixture evenly over brownie batter in each pan. 3. Bake 20 to 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes. Carefully invert cake layers from pans onto cooling racks; remove parchment paper. Cool completely, about 1 hour. 4.
