Description
Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs are a delightful treat combining fudgy brownies and sweet cherry filling, all coated in chocolate.
Ingredients
Scale
- Brownie Base
520 g chewy fudge brownie mix - 120 ml vegetable oil
- 60 ml water
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- Filling & Assembly
340 g whipped chocolate frosting - 285 g maraschino cherries, drained, stems removed, patted dry
- Coating
510 g chocolate almond bark
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 175°C. Generously spray a 22×33 cm baking dish with nonstick baker’s spray.
- Combine brownie mix, vegetable oil, water, and eggs in a medium mixing bowl. Stir until just combined. Spread batter evenly in the prepared dish. Bake per package instructions. Cool completely.
- Crumble half the cooled brownies into a large bowl. Spoon half the whipped frosting over crumbs. Crumble remaining brownies on top; add remaining frosting. Mix with a large spoon until evenly combined.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a 22 ml (1½ tablespoon) scoop, portion the brownie mixture. Roll into a ball, flatten slightly, and create an indentation with your thumb. Place a maraschino cherry in the center, then enclose and roll to seal. Arrange on the lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining mixture. Chill for 60 minutes in the refrigerator.
- Break almond bark into pieces and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 1-minute intervals, stirring each time, until thoroughly melted and smooth.
- Using a spoon, submerge each chilled brownie ball in melted almond bark to coat. Lift with a fork, tapping gently to remove excess coating. Set coated balls back onto parchment. Repeat for all pieces. Refrigerate until fully set and ready to serve.
Notes
- Ensure cherries are well-dried to prevent excess moisture in the brownie bombs.
- Experiment with different types of frosting for added flavor.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
