Chocolate Cherry Merlot Brownies, Sweeten the moment with this unique, wine lover’s dessert Bursting with merlot-soaked cherries, these fudgy brownies are bound to spark passion , I baked these for a restaurant, and they are amazing! used dried cranberries rather than cherries The merlot (Copper Ridge) added a delicious something extra Definitely use DARK baking chocolate Wonderful, wonderful, and they will be made and enjoyed again , For me, these were just okay the batter had a great texture, but the brownies themselves weren’t all that chocolatey (amazingly), nor could I detect the presence of the merlot I did like the addition of the cherries, though And I was really amused when the bar of baking chocolate that I bought to make these brownies turned out to have this very recipe on the back!
