Cherry Chocolate Cobler		    

Instead of using the dough recipe here, I think you could probably use your favorite brownie recipe instead. The dough recipe here is pretty dry, so you might want to leave some of the liquid out of your recipe, if you use it. I like making this 'Double Chocolate' by adding 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the dough. This addition is optional, and not part of the original recipe I got. You could make it 'Triple Chocolate' by adding 1/4 cup each of chocolate chips and white chocolate chips. You can double the recipe and bake it in a 9x13" pan. The possibilities are truly endless....
