CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY BROWNIE BOMBS RECIPE - (4/5)

Provided by bobcat

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 box brownie mix and ingredients as needed on the instructions of the box
1 can chocolate frosting
3-4 cups milk chocolate chips
1 can cherry pie filling

Steps:

Make brownies and bake according to directions on the box. Let cool completely. DO NOT OVERCOOK. Crumble the brownies and mix in about 3/4 cup of chocolate frosting. If you've made cake pops before, you want a similar consistency. Add more frosting a little at a time if you need to until you have the right consistency (stays together easily, but isn't too sticky) to roll into balls. Start with about 1 tablespoon of brownie/frosting mixture. Form into a ball, then make a hole in the middle to drop one cherry from the pie filling into. Use a little more the brownie/frosting mixture if needed to seal the cherry in. Place balls in freezer for about 20 minutes. While they are hardening in the freezer, melt the chocolate chips. You may use more or less depending on how heavily you coat the balls. After removing the balls from the freezer, keep them in the refrigerator while taking one out at a time and dropping into the melted chocolate, tap off the excess chocolate and place on wax paper for them to dry completely.

Tips:

To achieve the perfect chocolate-to-cherry ratio, use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients. This will ensure that you have the right balance of flavors.
If you don't have a kitchen scale, you can use measuring cups instead. Just be sure to level off your ingredients before measuring them.
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%. You can also use semisweet chocolate, but it will be less intense.
If you want a sweeter filling, add more sugar to the cherries. You can also use honey or maple syrup instead of sugar.
To prevent the chocolate from cracking, let it cool completely before dipping the cherries.
For a more festive look, decorate the chocolate cherries with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or grated chocolate.

Conclusion:

Chocolate-covered cherries are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dessert that is both elegant and decadent. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these chocolate cherry bombs a try. You won't be disappointed!
