Method

  1. Melt the dark chocolate and butter, and let the mixture cool.
  2. Separately sift the flour with baking powder.
  3. Beat the eggs with sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Pour in the chocolate and butter, and keep beating until combined; at the end add the flour, and knead the dough.
  5. For the interlayer, place the cottage cheese, eggs and sugar in a blender bowl, and mash until smooth.
  6. In a mold greased with butter, lay out a layer of chocolate dough, a cottage cheese layer and cherries. Repeat the sequence again, and finish with another layer of dough.
  7. Bake the brownies at 356F (180C) for about 50 minutes until a toothpick is dry.
  8. Let the dessert cool completely, remove it from the mold, and cut into squares.

* I baked half a batch in a 16*16cm (6.30*6.30 inch) tin, and the brownie came out quite tall.
