Ingredients:
1/2 cup stick margarine
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 cup cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup no-sugar-added cherry pie filling
2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray an 8×8-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium saucepan, melt the margarine. Add the sugar and stir until smooth and slightly cooled, 2 minutes.
Blend in the egg. Add the cocoa, vanilla, baking powder, and baking soda; stir until the cocoa is fully incorporated, 1 minute. Add the flour and stir just until smooth, 1 minute.
Spread the batter in the prepared baking pan and top evenly with pie filling.
Bake until the top becomes slightly crusty, 8 to 10 minutes, then sprinkle on the chocolate chips. bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean with a few moist crumbs, about 8-10 minutes.
