Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh or frozen cherries (pitted)
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups brown sugar
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch square baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pitted cherries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Stir until the cherries are well coated. Transfer this mixture to the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the cherry mixture.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and salt.
Pour the melted butter over the dry ingredients and mix until the mixture forms small clumps, resembling coarse crumbs.
Evenly spread the oat topping over the cherries and chocolate in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the cherry filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
