Ingredients

For your Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs, you will need:

• 1 box brownie mix
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup cherry filling (or fresh cherries)
• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 1 cup chocolate melts or chocolate coating

Make sure to check that your chocolate melts are halal-compliant!

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat your oven: Begin by preheating your oven to the temperature suggested on the brownie mix box.
2. Prepare the brownie mix: In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, vegetable oil, and eggs. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
3. Bake the brownies: Pour the brownie mixture into a greased baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake according to the package’s instructions, usually about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the brownies to cool completely.
4. Form the brownie bombs: Once cooled, crumble the brownies into a large bowl. Add the cherry filling or chopped fresh cherries and mix until well combined. Take small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls about the size of a tablespoon.
5. Chill the brownie balls: Place the formed brownie balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Chill them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.
6. Melt the chocolate: While the brownie balls are chilling, melt the chocolate chips or chocolate melts in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.
7. Coat the brownie bombs: Remove the brownie balls from the fridge. Dip each ball in the melted chocolate, coating it completely, then return it to the baking sheet.
8. Let them set: Allow the chocolate-coated brownie bombs to set at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate is firm.

Top Tips for Perfecting Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs

• Add flavor: Consider adding a few drops of vanilla extract to the brownie mix for a richer flavor.
