Time 1h50m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup butter
2 cups white sugar
⅔ cup cocoa powder
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup gluten-free all purpose baking flour
½ teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
⅓ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  • Melt butter in the microwave, about 1 minute. Stir in sugar and cocoa powder. Blend in eggs one at a time using an electric mixer; add vanilla extract. Combine flour (see Cook's Note), baking powder, and salt in a small bowl and add to batter. Mix until well combined and pour into the prepared baking pan. Level with a knife or spatula.
  • Beat together cream cheese, sugar and 1 egg in a second bowl until smooth. Dollop the cream cheese mixture on top of the brownie batter.
  • Separate cherries from the the jelled filling and dollop them over the cream cheese mixture, saving leftover jelly for another use if desired. Swirl together using a knife.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until brownies are set and edges pull away from the sides of the pan, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven and cool thoroughly before cutting into bars.

These brownies are a great way to use up leftover cherries. I had a bunch of cherries that were about to go bad and I used them to make these brownies.

I made these brownies with gluten-free flour and they turned out great! They were just as delicious as the regular brownies.

These brownies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.

I'm not a huge fan of cherries, but I really enjoyed these brownies. The cherry cheesecake filling was not too sweet and it paired well with the chocolate brownies.
