These little bites would be perfect as just brownies but adding a macerated cherry to each one makes them even more delicious and fun.

This recipe makes 36 brownie bites and they freeze very well so you can make them now and enjoy them throughout the season.  

Tomorrow I am sharing a recipe for Orange Chocolate Meltaways as my Improv Cooking Challenge this month.  Friday I will be with my final Christmas Sweets Week offering.....a cookie that you are sure to love.  Stay safe and stay well until we meet again.
