  • In a medium mixing bowl, melt butter in microwave safe bowl. Let cool.
  • Add sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Combine and stir for about 1 minute. Add cocoa powder, flour, salt, and baking powder. Stir until fully combined, about 50 strokes. Don't overmix. Spread batter onto prepared pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Do not overcook. Remove from oven and place on a cooling rack.
  • Meanwhile, combine softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Beat together for about 2 minutes, until smooth.
