CHOCOLATE CHERRY BOMBE

Steps:

• Line bowl with plastic wrap, leaving an overhang all around.
• Stir walnuts and chocolate cookies into cherry ice cream in another bowl. Transfer ice cream to lined bowl and spread evenly over bottom and up sides, leaving a crater in center. Freeze until firm, about 45 minutes.
• Scoop chocolate ice cream into crater in cherry ice cream, then smooth top with an offset spatula. Freeze until firm, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, melt chocolate with butter and oil in a heatproof medium bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
• Invert bombe onto a rack set over a baking sheet and remove plastic wrap. Make a small indentation in top and place maraschino cherry into ice cream so that the cherry is submerged but stem sticks straight up (like a fuse).
• Ladle chocolate sauce on top of bombe (avoiding cherry stem), letting it drip over sides to coat thoroughly. Freeze until chocolate coating is set, about 30 minutes.
• To serve, cut into wedges.

CHOCOLATE COVERED CHERRY BROWNIE BOMBS RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Make brownies and bake according to directions on the box. Let cool completely. DO NOT OVERCOOK. Crumble the brownies and mix in about 3/4 cup of chocolate frosting. If you've made cake pops before, you want a similar consistency. Add more frosting a little at a time if you need to until you have the right consistency (stays together easily, but isn't too sticky) to roll into balls. Start with about 1 tablespoon of brownie/frosting mixture. Form into a ball, then make a hole in the middle to drop one cherry from the pie filling into. Use a little more the brownie/frosting mixture if needed to seal the cherry in. Place balls in freezer for about 20 minutes. While they are hardening in the freezer, melt the chocolate chips. You may use more or less depending on how heavily you coat the balls. After removing the balls from the freezer, keep them in the refrigerator while taking one out at a time and dropping into the melted chocolate, tap off the excess chocolate and place on wax paper for them to dry completely.
