Base edit

  1. Melt margarine in a saucepan over medium-low heat, then mix in the cocoa.

  3. Spread in a greased 9 x 9-inch (22 x 22 cm) cake pan and set aside.

  1. Beat the cream cheese, cherry syrup and icing sugar together in a bowl until creamy.
  2. Add the egg to the mixture and blend well.
  3. Mix in the chocolate chips and cherries.
  4. Pour the second mixture over top the base.

Baking edit

  1. Bake at 350 °F/175 °C for 30–40 minutes, until a toothpick poked through the centre comes out moist (but not wet with batter).
  2. Let cool and cut into 36 squares.

Notes, tips and variations edit

  • Cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting and eating or you will have hot broken brownies.
