I remembered my childhood brownie recipe as being very simple and all made in a single pot. This is a simple one-pot brownie recipe that never disappoints. As proven by my own past, even a child can make these. I’ve converted the original recipe to make it gluten free and I have listed both versions below.
The cherries kept the brownies incredibly moist. The bars almost begged for a quick reheat with ice cream on top. I’ve made these twice now and served them both plain and with ice cream on top. I really loved these brownies! Everyone who tasted these brownies loved them as well and commented on the unexpected and subtle flavor of the fresh cherries.

And for another cherry favorite, Black Forest Cake is a must make dessert as well. {originally published 6/28/12 – recipe notes and photos updated 5/27/21}
