  5. Put the classic brownie with cherry in the oven. The baking temperature is 185 degrees. Cooking time - 40-45 minutes.

Traditionally, brownies are oiled with apricot jam or glaze. However, this recipe uses cherries, which means other berries will not work. Therefore, the surface of the dessert is better to soak in syrup and sprinkle with grated chocolate.

Cottage cheese for brownie with cherry can be used in different ways. For example, add it to the dough. Or make a cream with which to coat the cakes on top or inside.

Cottage cheese is very important to grind. Then it will be easier to mix in the chocolate mass. In any case, you need to act quickly so that the dough "does not sit down."
