CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY BROWNIE BOMBS



Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs image

These Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs are delicious bites of brownie surrounding cherries and then dipped in chocolate!

Provided by Lisa Longley

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 box of brownie mix and the ingredients it takes to make them
3/4 cup chocolate frosting
15 oz almond bark (melted according to package instructions)
1 can of cherry pie filling or maraschino cherries (see note)

Steps:

  • Bake the brownies as directed and let cool completely. Do not overcook the brownies, crunchy brownie bits don't make for good bombs.
  • Crumble the made brownies and mix in about 3/4 a cup of chocolate frosting. If you've made cake pops before, you want a similar consistency. You may need to add a little more, but you want to start out on the low side and add more if you need it.
  • Once you have it the consistency needed (stays together easily but isn't too sticky to roll into balls), start with about 1 1/2 TBSP of brownie frosting mixture. (A cookie scoop makes it a lot easier.) Form it into a ball, but then make a hole in the middle that you can drop one cherry from the pie filling into.
  • Fold the brownie ball in over the cherry or top with a little more of the brownie/frosting mixture and do your best to seal the cherry in.
  • Once you have all your bombs made, pop them in the freezer for about 20 minutes.
  • While they are hardening up in the freezer, melt your almond bark. You may need a little more or a little less depending on how heavily you coat the bombs.
  • After the 20 minutes, take them out of the freezer and keep them in the refrigerator. Working one bomb at a time, drop it into the melted almond bark, pull it back out, and tap off the excess chocolate.
  • Place it on wax paper and wait for it to dry completely.

CHOCOLATE-COVERED CHERRY DELIGHTS



Chocolate-Covered Cherry Delights image

While on vacation this summer, I read the book "Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder" by Joanne Fluke. The author included some very good cookie recipes throughout the book. I want to pass the book on to my swap partner in the Used Media Swap on Zaar, I am posting the recipes here so I can try them later. If you make the cookies before me, please leave a review to let us know how good they are. FYI, the author did not indicate how many cookies the recipe makes so I guessed. I will post a correction as soon as I know better. Oh, one more thing - the book was fun to read. (Author's note about this recipe: "A plate of these should be in every psychiatrist's office - - two Chocolate-Covered Cherry Delights will lift anyone out of a depression)
