Sour Cherry Brownies

OK - I keep getting requests for more cookies or baked goods. I was holding out the following for the cook book - but this is a great brown recipe - at least i think so

Sour Cherry Brownies

ingredients

3 3.5 oz bars of Greens & Blacks 85% cocoa bars
1 stick of unsalted butter at room temp
1 1/4 cups of raw sugar
3 large eggs - whisked together
3/4 cups of unbleached all purpose flour
1 cup of dried sour cherries - they are in Costco right now
1 cup of chopped walnuts

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In a double boiler over medium heat, the water should be simmering not boiling, place butter and chocolate bars, stir until almost melted. Remove from heat and and whisk in sugar and salt until smooth. Next slowly pour in eggs to mixture whisking as you go. Follow next with the flour, once combined fold in the walnuts and cherries.
In about an 8 inch square pan line it with foil; it is much easier to get the brownies out when they are done and they do not stick to the pan. Spray foil with Pam. Next pour in batter and smooth out evenly in the pan. Bake for about 45 minutes or until a tooth pick comes out almost clean, there should be a few bits stuck to it. Transfer to a rack to cool. Then lift the foil out of the pan and cut. The brownies should keep for about two days, but then if there are any left after 12 hours there is something wrong in your house.

Enjoy Cooking
