    Cherry Pie Filling Brownies

    I always say that there should always be space in our plates – and our stomachs- for just one more dessert.

    This recipe is a simple, fool-proof and great way of creating a dessert that doesn’t eat into your pockets, nor does it steal so much of your time.

    I assure you this recipe will be one of your favourites. Here is why:

    • You do not need a lot of time to make this recipe.
    • It is only a 5 ingredient dessert.
    • They are fudgy and chocolate dense; perfect for chocolate lovers.
    • The recipe requires no special kitchen equipment to make.
    • Kids and adults LOVE this chocolate cherry brownies recipe.

    What are the ingredients of the recipe?

    The complete information on ingredients and quantities in the recipe card at the end of the post.

    I used only five ingredients to make this brownies with cherry pie filling recipe, believe it or not:

    Box of brownie mix (store-bought): you can choose any boxed brownie mix of your choice but make sure that you choose a chocolate brownie mix and not cake mix.

    Eggs: They act as a binder for the different ingredients in your recipe. At the same time, it also makes brownies fudgier.

    Vegetable oil: It has a neutral taste, and it adds moisture to your brownies. You can use melted butter instead if you want.

    Cherry pie filling: I use store bought cherry pie filling.

    Chocolate bars: I add chocolate as an additional garnish to this recipe. It provides additional sweetness and decadence to the brownie, but it also adds crunch to the texture of your dessert.

    How to make Brownies with Cherry Pie Filling?

    First Step: Preheat the oven to 176 C/ 350 F and line a 9-inch pan with parchment paper.

    Whisk brownie mix, eggs, oil, and half of the cherry pie filling until combined.

    Second Step: In a medium bowl, whisk brownie mix, eggs, oil, and half of the cherry pie filling until combined.

    Spread the batter into the pan and top with cherry pie filling and chopped chocolate.

    Third Step: Spread the brownie batter into the baking pan and drop the remaining pie filling over the top of the batter.

    Tip: Make sure to remove any air pockets in the batter before baking. You can do this by giving the pan a few gentle whams on the kitchen/table counter.

    Fourth Step: Use a toothpick to make swirls of the batter and cherries, and then scatter the chopped chocolate on top.

    Fifth Step: Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes.

    Tip: Make sure that your brownie is not overcooked. To know if your brownie is ready, get a toothpick and stick it in the middle of your batter. Your toothpick should come out with little to no crumbs.

    Sixth Step: Allow cooling before cutting into squares.

    Top Tips!

    • Make sure to preheat the oven to allow for even baking.
    • Do not use a baking pan that is bigger or smaller than the one prescribed in this recipe; this will make your brownies too thin or too dense.
    • Make sure to use room temperature eggs in the batter as they mix easily with the batter, creating a smoother batter.
    • Do not overmix the batter, just mix until all ingredients are well combined.
    • Another great tip to avoid overmixing brownies is using a spatula or wooden spoon to fold in the ingredient instead of a hand mixer or electric mixer.
    • When stored at room temperature, these cherry-filled brownies can last for up to four days if they are stored in an airtight container.

    Cut The Brownies

    It is important to take note to let the chocolate settle before serving. Thus, after the brownies are taken out of the oven, let them cool on a cooling rack.

    When slicing, I recommend to run your knife through hot water to get even and clean slices.

    You can also slice them into regular chunks or slice them into smaller bite-sized pieces for easier munching.

      How many ounces should the box of brownie mix be? Brownie mixes come in many units, so it would be helpful if you could add that information.
