ISO: Brownies need help

Misc.
I like to make brownies from scratch, and try just about any recipe that comes along. Approximately 90% come out tasting great but have a dull, matte, even porous top crust. I read several years ago in a cooking magazine about why this occurs and how to come up with a smooth, shiny crust, but can't remember the instructions. Anyone out there know the solution? Thanks in advance!
