Time 1h55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups (186g) all-purpose flour
1/3 cup (42g) dark cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs, (room temperature)
2 cups (400g) granulated sugar
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks or 170g) butter, (softened or room temperature)
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 cup seedless cherry preserves
6 ounces semisweet chocolate, (chopped)
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9x13 baking dish with non-stick spray or GOOP.
  • In a large bowl add flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt. Whisk together ingredients until they are fully incorporated.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large bowl using a hand-held mixer, beat the eggs, sugar, butter, and vanilla until light and fluffy.
  • With the mixer off, add in the flour mixture. Turn mixer on low and mix until ingredients are well combined.
  • Pour brownies into a prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes at 350°F. Brownies are done when an inserted toothpick is removed with crumbs but not wet batter.
  • When brownies are slightly cooled (but still warm!), spread the cherry preserves over the top using an off-set spatula.
  • To make the chocolate ganache, bring the whipping cream to a boil and remove from heat.
  • With chocolate chips in a heat-safe bowl, pour cream over chips and slowly stir until all chips are melted.
  • Pour the chocolate ganache over the cherry preserves layer, covering as much of the preserves as possible.
  • Refrigerate for about an hour or until the chocolate is set.

Tips:

  • Use unsweetened cocoa powder for a richer chocolate flavor. You can also use a combination of unsweetened and Dutch-process cocoa powder for an even more intense flavor.
  • Make sure your butter and chocolate are melted and smooth before adding them to the batter. This will help to ensure that the brownies are evenly mixed and have a smooth texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the brownies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. Overbaking will make the brownies dry and crumbly.
  • Let the brownies cool completely before cutting them. This will help to prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

This chocolate cherry brownie dessert is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The brownies are fudgy and chocolatey, with a sweet and tart cherry filling. The whipped cream and chocolate shavings add a touch of elegance, making this dessert perfect for a special occasion.
