Chewy Cherry Brownies

I recently picked up a pouch of dried tart cherries, which is very odd given I’m not a big cherry fan. What can I say, I do weird things sometimes. It’s not that I hate cherry; it’s just not one of my faves, at least not in fruit form. By that I mean I really enjoyed cherry licorice (anyone know of any good gluten free licorice?? If so, please share!), but I’m not a fan of the fruit. It’s a bit sneaky when you think of it – looking all ruby red and delicious on the outside, but once you bite in, you get a hit of sour (damn you ruby temptress!).

So instead, I made these Gluten Free Dairy Free Chewy Cherry Brownies.

I also decided to throw in some chopped pecans as I had some on hand, but you can choose to omit them from the recipe if you wish.

      It is sooo good! Not dense at all – very chocolatey and the tart cherries compliment it so well. Thanks for commenting! :)
