"The cherries add a delicious surprise inside the fudgy brownies. Moreover, they are very simple to make and lighter than the usual. I use 60% Cocoa Ghirardelli baking chips for this recipe "

Absolutely Scrumptious Fudgy Brownies! I made these as directed with your recommended Ghirardelli bittersweet baking chips and pecans. You really can not tell that this was made with part Splenda and egg whites. Sooo Sinful! I love the dark chocolate taste with the tart cherries too. I did underbake these by 5 minutes as I'm always afraid of overbaking brownies. I wasn't able to cut them into squares until I refrigerated them overnight, then they were more like fudge than a brownie, but any which way they are fabulous! Hubby really really loves these too. Freddy Cat says thanks for the sweets! Made for the Billboard recipe tag game.
