I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cherry swirl didn't turn out. It just kind of sank to the bottom of the pan.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my brownies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I'm not a big fan of cherries, but I still really enjoyed these brownies. The cherry swirl was subtle and didn't overpower the chocolate.
