Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs


  • Author: Lusine Svetlana

Description

If you’re craving a dessert that’s rich, indulgent, and beautifully bite-sized, these Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs are just what you need. Imagine fudgy brownie mixed with creamy frosting, wrapped around a juicy cherry, then dipped in melted chocolate. Each bite is a perfect blend of chewy, gooey, and sweet—making them a show-stopping treat for parties, holidays, or anytime you need a little chocolate magic.


Ingredients

  • 1 box of brownie mix (plus ingredients listed on the box to prepare them)
  •  ¾ cup chocolate frosting
  •  15 oz almond bark (melted according to package instructions)
  •  1 can cherry pie filling or maraschino cherries (see note)


Instructions

  1. Bake the brownies: Prepare the brownie mix according to package directions and let them cool completely. Avoid overbaking to keep the texture soft and fudgy.
  2. Crumble the brownies: Once cooled, crumble them into a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add frosting: Mix in about ¾ cup of chocolate frosting. Stir until the mixture is thick enough to roll into balls but not too sticky. Add more frosting if needed.
  4. Form the balls: Scoop about 1½ tablespoons of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Press a small hole in the center.
  5. Add the cherry: Place one cherry from the pie filling or maraschino cherries into the center and carefully seal it with more brownie mixture.
  6. Freeze: Place the formed brownie bombs on a baking sheet lined with wax paper and freeze for about 20 minutes to firm up.
  7. Melt the almond bark: While the bombs are chilling, melt the almond bark according to the package directions until smooth.
  8. Coat the bombs: Remove the brownie bombs from the freezer and dip each one into the melted almond bark, coating it completely. Tap off the excess chocolate.
  9. Set and dry: Place each dipped bomb on wax paper and let them sit until the coating hardens completely.

Notes

Serving: These Chocolate Covered Cherry Brownie Bombs taste best slightly chilled or at room temperature. Serve them as a bite-sized dessert for parties, holidays, or after-dinner treats.
Storage: Store the brownie bombs in an airtight container lined with parchment paper. Keep them refrigerated for up to 5 days to maintain freshness.
Freezing: For long-term storage, freeze them for up to 1 month. Place them in a single layer, separated by parchment paper to prevent sticking. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
Presentation Tip: Drizzle with white chocolate or sprinkle with crushed nuts for an elegant look before serving.
