Chocolate-Cherry Brownie Cake image

My grandmother taught me the tricks to making this cake, and I've added my own special touches. The melted chocolate keeps the icing from being too dry and gives it a texture similar to chocolate ice cream. I have more requests for the icing than I do anything else! -Susan Hayes, Massapequa, New York

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A good semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
  • Make sure your butter is softened to room temperature before creaming it with the sugar. This will help to create a smooth and creamy batter.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the brownies tough.
  • Be careful not to overbake the brownies. Overbaking can make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • For a fun twist, try adding a layer of raspberry jam or caramel sauce between the brownie layers.
  • Garnish the brownies with fresh cherries, chocolate shavings, or nuts for a special touch.
