Equipment

Ingredients

130 g Dark Chocolate
360 g Yogurt (1+ ½ cup)
125 g Sugar
185 ml Milk (¾ cup)
120 g Wholemeal Flour (1 cup)
75 g Cocoa Powder
¼ tsp Baking Soda
¼ tsp Salt
200 g Cherries, pitted

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square baking tin with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
Melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler or microwave, stirring every 30 seconds to prevent burning.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the room-temperature yogurt, milk, sugar, and melted chocolate until smooth.
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gently fold with a spatula until almost combined.
Fold in the pitted cherries and some extra dark chocolate chunks, if you like.
Transfer the batter to the prepared baking tin, smoothing out the top. Add a few more halved cherries and chocolate chunks on top for garnish.
Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the tin before slicing with a sharp, clean knife.

Notes

TIPS:

Use Quality Chocolate: The better the quality of your dark chocolate, the richer and more decadent your brownies will be.
Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your yogurt and milk are at room temperature for a smooth batter.
Don’t Overmix: Fold the dry ingredients gently to avoid tough brownies.
Check for Doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center at 35 minutes to check for moist crumbs.
Cool Completely: Let the brownies cool fully in the tin before slicing for the best texture.

MEASUREMENTS:

I always recommend using a kitchen weighing scale and using weighted measurements. This will result in a more accurate process and your recipe will come out perfectly.
