Pour the batter into the springform pan and spread evenly. Bake at 350°F for 30-35 minutes until the center is baked but still slightly fudgy. Allow the brownie to cool completely.

In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave the white chocolate at 50% power in 30 second increments until the chocolate is melted, stirring occasionally. Once melted, stir until smooth. Set aside to cool.

Microwave the gelatin for 8-10 seconds until it turns back to a liquid, watch closely.

To prepare the whipped cream, place the metal mixing bowl and whisk in the freezer for 5-10 minutes.

Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl and use an electric mixer to beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until the cream starts to thicken. Slowly add the powdered sugar and liquid gelatin and continue beating on high speed until stiff peaks form. Set the whipped cream aside.
