Ingredients
- 170 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Dark chocolate (roughly chopped)
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 100 grams Brown sugar
- 3 Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 150 grams Fresh or frozen cherries (pitted and halved)
- 100 grams Dark chocolate chips or chunks
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
Step 2
In a heatproof bowl, melt the butter and chopped dark chocolate together over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method) or in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the melted chocolate mixture and whisk until well incorporated.
Step 4
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking each until fully combined. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Sift the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, and salt into the wet ingredients. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the halved cherries and dark chocolate chips or chunks, distributing them evenly through the batter.
Step 7
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-32 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
Step 9
Remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Step 10
Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the brownies from the pan. Slice into 12 squares or rectangles and serve.
