FOR THE BROWNIE BATTER:
10 Tablespoons Butter, Cubed
3/4 cups Cocoa Powder, Plus 2 Tablespoons
1 cup Granulated Sugar
1/2 teaspoons Instant Coffee Granules
2 whole Eggs, Cold
1/2 cups All-purpose Flour
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1 cup Pitted And Quartered Cherries
FOR THE GOAT CHEESE FROSTING
4 ounces, weight Goat Cheese, At Room Temperature
4 Tablespoons Butter, At Room Temperature
2 Tablespoons Honey, Or To Taste

1
Preheat the oven to 350 F.
2
Place the butter, cocoa powder, sugar, and instant coffee granules in a large microwavable bowl. Microwave until the butter is completely melted, stopping every 30 seconds to give it a stir. The mixture will be very thick.
3
Remove bowl from the microwave. Stir for about a minute to cool the batter slightly, then beat in the eggs one at a time. Beat the mixture until it is smooth and shiny.
4
Mix in the flour and salt, and then fold in the cherries. Spoon the batter into a greased 8x8 inch pan or a 9-inch circular pan. Bake for about 25 minutes, until the center is barely set. (When you insert a toothpick into the center, it won't come out clean; you want it to be thickly coated with moist crumbs.)
5
Remove dish from oven when done. Let the brownies cool completely.
6
In a medium sized bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the frosting until light and fluffy. Spread it over the brownies once they are cooled. Cut into small squares or very thin slices.
7
Brownie batter adapted from Alice Medrich's Cocoa Brownies.
