Black Forest Brownies
These Black Forest Brownies are packed with tart dried cherries and chocolate chunks. They're unbelievably delicious and better than the box!
Servings: 16 brownies
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups unsalted butter
- 2 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 4 eggs, room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups cocoa powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup dried cherries, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large microwave safe bowl, add butter. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring the butter after each 30 seconds until butter is completely melted. Remove from the microwave and add brown sugar. Whisk mixture until completely combined, set aside to cool slightly.
- Add eggs one at a time, whisking after each addition.
- Add cocoa powder, salt, vanilla, and flour. Stir lightly, then add dried cherries and chocolate chips. Fold mixture gently until just combined.
- Pour mixture into a parchment lined 9x9 baking sheet. Bake for 50 minutes, or until brownies or set around the edges. When you insert a toothpick into the center of the pan, it's ok if some brownie batter comes out. They'll continue to slightly bake in the pan after they're removed, and you want to almost underbake them to ensure they're nice and soft when you cut them
- Set aside and allow to cool for 30 minutes. Life the brownies out of the pan by using the parchment paper to pull them out. Slice into 16 squares and enjoy!
