DEATH BY CHOCOLATE: SIMPLY THE BEST CHOCOLATE BROWNIE LAYER
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Prepare the chocolate brownie layer. Coat a 9 by 1 1/2-inch cake pan with 1 teaspoon of butter. Flour the pan with 1 teaspoon of flour, shaking out the excess.
- Sift together 1/4 cup flour, 2 tablespoons cocoa, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt onto waxed paper. Set aside.
- Heat 1-inch of water in the bottom half of a double boiler over medium heat. Place 3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, 4 tablespoons butter, and 2 ounces semisweet chocolate in the top half of the double boiler tightly cover top with film wrap. Heat for 4 1/2 to 5 minutes, remove from the heat, and stir until smooth.
- Place 3 eggs, 1 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a balloon whip. Whisk on high speed until slightly thickened, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture and whisk on medium for 30 seconds. Add the sifted ingredients, whisk on low for 10 seconds, then on medium for 10 seconds. Add the sour cream and whisk on medium for 5 seconds.
- Remove the bowl from the mixer and use a rubber spatula to thoroughly combine ( also add and combine 4 ounces chocolate chunks ).
- Pour the brownie batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading evenly. Bake the brownie for 30 minutes, until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan at room temperature for 5 minutes. Turn out onto a cake circle and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the brownie from the refrigerator and cut in half horizontally. Keep the brownie at room temperature until needed.

FROM-SCRATCH CHERRY BROWNIES
I didn't see any recipes for cherry brownies that don't use pie filling or box mix, so I came up with my own. The cherries make the brownies very moist and add subtle fruit flavor. I bet you could use other canned or cooked fruits in this (berries, peaches, pears) with good effect. The base brownie recipe comes from "The Wise Encyclopedia of Cookery" ca. 1949 and it's still a super recipe.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Grease a 9" square pan.
- Melt unsweetened chocolate and butter in the microwave.
- Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk briefly to aerate (could sift, but I find it messier).
- In a separate bowl, beat eggs and vanilla until fluffy. Add sugar in three additions, beating well between additions.
- Add the butter/chocolate mixture to the egg/sugar mixture and mix thoroughly.
- Add the wet mixture to the dry. Stir very gently just until combined.
- Add cherries and chips and stir just until distributed.
- Pour into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with nuts if desired.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes. The edges should pull away from the pan slightly when they're done. Don't overbake.
- Note: The original recipe says 20 minutes. Mine took 30. I can't tell if my oven's off or the cherries are causing the baking time to be longer.

Steps:
- Melt the two chocolates and the butter together in a double boiler.
- Let the mixture cool to room temperature.

- Blend in the chocolate mix.
- Sift the flour and fold in.
- Pour into a 9" x 13" pan.
- Bake at 325 degrees F for 45-50 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe cherries. This will give your brownies the best flavor and texture.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the brownies tough.
- Bake the brownies until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. If the toothpick comes out clean, the brownies are overbaked.
- Let the brownies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- Use a high-quality chocolate for the frosting. This will make the frosting rich and delicious.
- Be creative with the decorations. You can use sprinkles, chopped nuts, or even fresh cherries to decorate the brownies.
Conclusion:
These Death by Cherry Brownies are the perfect dessert for any chocolate lover. They're rich, fudgy, and packed with cherry flavor. The frosting is the perfect finishing touch, and it really takes these brownies to the next level. If you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make dessert, these brownies are the perfect choice.
