❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

We have always been big fans of chocolate-covered cherries! If you have followed us for a while, you know our Mother owned a country store, and she gave them out every year for Christmas to all her patrons. So, making these brownies was a lot of fun, and we all agreed they were wonderful! These are always so pretty for the holidays! Plus these are made with a brownie mix and only a few ingredients!

🍴KEY INGREDIENTS

Brownie Mix (9X13) + ingredients needed to make brownies
Miniature Marshmallows
Maraschino Cherries
Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

🍽️HOW TO MAKE

We use a 9X13 brownie mix and make them in an 8X8 pan, so they are thick and really gooey! You don’t have to do that, you can use a mix made for an 8X8 if you like. We used a Duncan Hines Family size Chewy Fudge Brownie Mix. Full printable recipe in recipe card below.

COOKING STEPS

Step 1
In and 8X8 baking pan make brownies according to the box. Remove from oven and sprinkle with marshmallows. Put back in oven for a minute or so, or until marshmallows are melted.

Step 2
Sprinkle chopped cherries on top of the marshmallows and let cool completely. Next, melt chocolate chips in the microwave and drizzle over the brownies.

⭐TIP

These brownies can easily be made the day before. Also you can make them in a 9X13 they just wont be very thick, either way they will be delicious. You can always add more cherries too.

If the chocolate chips are to thick to spread you can add some water or milk to them or just use chocolate syrup.
