When are cherries in season?

Fresh cherries are in season from the late spring through early summer. You may be able to find them at grocery stores other times throughout the year since occasionally they are imported.

How do you tell when brownies are done?

Brownies are done baking when they are set on top, and an inserted toothpick comes out with a few crumbs.

Why did my brownies sink in the middle?

If your brownies sink in the middle, it could be because you didn't preheat your oven or bake them long enough.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, oil, water, and vanilla extract until combined and smooth. Add the flour, cocoa powder, and sea salt. Whisk until combined.
Fold in the quartered cherries and chocolate chunks. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
Bake for 38-45 minutes, or until set and only a few crumbs come out on an inserted toothpick. Cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before gently pulling up on the parchment paper to move them to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing.
