For the Brownies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 cup unsalted butter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 cups granulated sugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 large eggs<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 1\/2 cups all-purpose flour<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3\/4 cup cocoa powder<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tsp baking powder<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tsp salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tsp orange zest<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tsp vanilla extract<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/2 cup fresh orange juice<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the Cream Cheese Frosting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8 oz cream cheese, softened<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/2 cup unsalted butter, softened<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 cups powdered sugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tsp vanilla extract<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PREPARATION:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Preheat your oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C) and grease a 9\u00d713 inch baking pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and let it cool slightly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs until well combined. Add the melted butter and mix until well combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, mixing until just combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stir in the orange zest, vanilla extract, and orange juice until well combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the cream cheese frosting, in a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spread the frosting over the cooled brownies and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
