["Preheat oven to 350u00b0F", "Grease a 9"" square pan.", "Melt unsweetened chocolate and butter in the microwave.", "Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk briefly to aerate (could sift, but I find it messier).", "In a separate bowl, beat eggs and vanilla until fluffy. Add sugar in three additions, beating well between additions.", "Add the butter/chocolate mixture to the egg/sugar mixture and mix thoroughly.", "Add the wet mixture to the dry. Stir very gently just until combined.", "Add cherries and chips and stir just until distributed.", "Pour into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with nuts if desired.", "Bake for 20-30 minutes. The edges should pull away from the pan slightly when they're done. Don't overbake.", "Note: The original recipe says 20 minutes. Mine took 30. I can't tell if my oven's off or the cherries are causing the baking time to be longer."]
