Cheryl’s Wild Cherry Brownies

Rich, deeply chocolatey and irresistibly fudgy, Cheryl’s Wild Cherry Brownies are a celebration of one of summer’s sweetest wild harvests.

Juicy wild cherries are folded through a decadent dark chocolate brownie, adding little bursts of fruity sweetness that perfectly balance the rich cocoa. Dense, gooey and finished with a delicate scattering of seasonal edible flowers, they’re a beautiful reminder that the wild can make even the most indulgent treats feel special.

Whether enjoyed with a cup of tea after a foraging walk or baked simply because wild cherries are in season, these brownies are guaranteed to disappear quickly.

Perfect for: Summer gatherings, picnics, afternoon tea, or whenever you’re lucky enough to have a basket of wild cherries to use. 🍒🍫
