I didn’t get the crackly top I wanted for these brownies so I covered them with icing sugar or marshmallows instead.

failed like a fox. excellent recovery.
if you want the crackly top you have to completely dissolve your sugar. this can happen by mixing extensively, using powdered sugar or granulated sugar you pulse in a food processor or by letting the brownie batter hydrate for a while before putting into the oven. one way or another the sugar has to dissolve and rise to the top to make the proper crinkle.
I beat my eggs and granulated sugar for seven minutes and get a nice crackly top. I have read about resting the brownie batter. I am going to give that a try as well.
That being said, these brownies are fabulous!
I love how you did the icing though. Was it royal icing?
Browned butter condensed milk brownies always give a crackle top. Hard to mess that one up
It’s ok, I’ll dispose of these shameful failures for you OP. (They look awesome, hope you get the results you wanted next time though!)
