CHERRY BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180ºC/gas 4. Line a 20cm square baking tin (or the equivalent) with greaseproof paper.
• Melt the butter and dark chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (don't let the bowl touch the water).
• Destone the cherries and roughly chop them along with the pecans. Stir into the melted chocolate, then take off the heat.
• In another bowl, add the sugar, then sift in the cocoa powder, flour and baking powder. Add to the melted chocolate mixture and stir till well combined.
• Beat the eggs and mix in. Roughly chop and stir through the milk or dark chocolate (if using).
• Transfer the mixture to the tin, then bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes. You want them a little gooey in the middle.
• Remove from the oven and cool in the tray, before cutting into squares.
