CHOCOLATE CHERRY BROWN RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350f degrees.
• Whisk together, buttermilk, egg, honey and cocoa until smooth.
• Add cooked rice and mix well.
• Rough chop half the cherries, add to rice mixture.
• Reserve the other half of the cherries for garnish.
• Pour the rice mixture into a greased (I use butter) 8x8 inch baking dish.
• Set baking dish into a roaster or other baking dish that it will fit into and pour boiling water into the other dish so that it comes about half way up the side of the dish filled with the rice pudding.
• (I do this after I have placed it on the oven rack for safety sake).
• Use the middle oven rack.
• Bake at 350f degrees for approximately 30 minutes or until the centre of the pudding is set, also depending on how dry you like your rice pudding, adjust cooking time accordingly.
• Remove from oven and roaster and set on a rack to cool.
• When cooled, spoon into 4 to 6 dessert cups, garnish with whipped cream, whole cherries and shaved chocolate.
• (I put a couple of whole cherries and some shaved chocolate in the bottom of the dessert cup also).
• They look very nice in a wine glass or just an ordinary glass.

Steps:

• Preheat over to 375°F. Line bottom and sides of 8×8-inch square baking pan with baking paper. Leave paper two inches over the rim. It will help you lift the bars once baked. mix melted butter, sugar, and vanilla in medium bowl, Add flour, almond flour, cocoa powder and salt and stir until incorporated. Transfer dough to your prepared pan, press the dough evenly across the bottom of the pan. Prick crust with a fork to prevent from puffing up. Bake the crust until golden, about 18 minutes ,Transfer crust to rack and cool in pan.
• Cook butter in heavy small saucepan over medium heat until deep nutty brown (do not burn), stirring often and watching carefully, about six minutes. Cool slightly.
• Whisk sugar, eggs, and salt in medium bowl to blend. Add flour, chocolate powder and vanilla and whisk until smooth. Gradually whisk browned butter into sugar-egg mixture; whisk until well blended.
• Scatter pitted cherries and chocolate in bottom of cooled crust. Pour browned butter mixture evenly over the fruit and chocolate. Bake until filling is firm and tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 40 minutes, Cool completely in pan on rack.
• Remove cooled bars from pan lifting from the overhanging paper and place them on a cutting board . Cut them into squares with a very sharp knife.
