"This is one of those 'gotta try recipes' from the side of a Pillsbury Brownie Mix box. Seems relatively easy - and I can't wait for my husband to go out of town so I won't have to share it !"

  1. Reviewed for PAC Fall '07 ... I really had to tweak this to make it WW friendly (can't fall off the program, even for PAC!) But the recipe adapted beautifully, and I think the flavors are close enough for me to review this. I substituted NoPudge brownie mix for regular brownie mix, which meant using nonfat yogurt instead of melted butter. I threw in the oats, but left out the walnuts; I made my own cherry pie filling from a 'Zaar recipe. Left off the hot fudge topping and vanilla ice cream. Anyway, it's a delicious combination of deep chocolate and cherry, and the oats give it a nice crunch. I found it EXTREMELY sweet (and I have a first-class sweet tooth!), so a little went a long way. But I'd definitely make it again. I'm guessing that the original recipe would be very, very rich, but very yummy, and a real treat for anyone who loved a chocolate-cherry combination. Thanks for posting this!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>Have been living in Texas after living in the Midwest my entire life. Love to knit, bake, cook, surf the Internet, play with my 2 girls, and bowl. 'Zaar is my internet addiction - one of the few websites I check daily. I love trying new dishes, fortunately my girls and my husband will try just about anything. <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/pacbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/KiwiDutch/3chefstag1.jpg alt= /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /></p>
