Ingredients

  • 1 box brownie mix - plus ingredients listed on the box
  • ¾ cup dark chocolate chips
  • ½ cup dried cherries
  • ¼ cup bourbon

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan, heat the bourbon over low heat until it simmers. Remove from heat.
  • Mix the dried cherries with the bourbon and let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to the temperature listed on the brownie mix box.
  • Grease an 9x9 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Prepare the brownie mix according to the instructions on the box.
  • Once the brownie mix is prepared, fold in the chocolate chips and the bourbon-soaked cherries (and any remaining bourbon).
  • Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish and smooth out the top.
  • Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for the time listed on the box.
  • Check the brownies with a toothpick or knife to see if they are done. If the toothpick or knife comes out clean, the brownies are ready.
  • Let the brownies cool in the baking dish for 10-15 minutes. Serve the brownies warm or at room temperature. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired, and enjoy!
