This brownie recipe from the ‘Green & Black’s Chocolate Recipes: Unwrapped’ cookbook is really good, have made these many times and they always turn out really well
Chocolate & Cherry Brownies
Ingredients:
300 g unsalted butter
300 g dark chocolate (minimum 60%, broken into pieces)
5 large eggs
400 g granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
200g plain flour
1 teaspoon salt
100 g of dried cherries
Method:
Grease a roasting or baking tray. In a bowl (placed on top of a pot of boiling water) melt the butter and chocolate together until thick and creamy. Meanwhile beat together sugar, eggs and vanilla extract until thick and creamy. The mixture should easily coat the back of a spoon. Once the butter-chocolate mixture has melted, remove from stove and beat into the egg mixture. Sift the flour and salt together, and add to the wet ingredients. Mix until mixture is well combined. Drain morello cherries and fold into the brownie mixture. Pour mixture into the tray and bake for 20-30 minutes at 180C. Once finished baking, allow to cool and cut into pieces.
