Chocolate brownies with a Cherry ripe suprise.

What can I say? but YUM!

For those that don't know what a Cherry Ripe is, well it is cherries, coconut and dark chocolate and apart of Australian Chocolate bar history and in my eyes the best!

300g Dark Chocolate
90g butter
1 cup castor sugar
3/4 cup plain flour
3 eggs beaten
2 tblspn cold water
1 bag of cherry ripe bites

Over a double boiler melt together the chocolate and butter.  When melted and combined set aside to cool. 

Stir the sugar into the chocolate mixture until just combined. 

Beat eggs and water together then add to the chocolate mixture and beat to combined.

Stir through the flour until just combined.

Put half the mixture into the prepared pan.  Add the cherry ripe bites.

Cover with the remaining brownie mixture and bake at 180C for 25 to 30 mins.  The edges will be slightly  puffy and the centre just set.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 mins in the pan then remove to a wire rack.


See how long they last!
