- Mix Brownie and Frosting: Crumble the brownies into a bowl, add frosting, and mix until dough-like.
- Form Brownie Balls: Flatten a portion of the mixture, place a cherry in the center, and wrap the brownie around it to form a ball.
- Chill: Place the balls on a baking sheet, chill for at least 1 hour, or freeze for 20 minutes until firm.
