Cupid's Favorite Cherry Brownie Clouds

1 box (about 19.5 ounces) double fudge brownie mix, prepared

1 can (16 ounces) vanilla frosting

2-4 drops red food coloring

8 ounces frozen nondairy whipped topping, thawed

2 tablespoons maraschino cherries, chopped

1 teaspoon maraschino cherry juice

Prepare brownies according to package and bake in a 9-by-13-inch pan. Allow to cool completely.

Using a 3-inch heart-shaped cookie cutter, press 8 hearts out of the brownies. Carefully remove from pan.

In a medium bowl, beat frosting with food coloring.

In a separate bowl, combine 2 tablespoons colored frosting with 1/2 cup whipped topping, cherries and cherry juice to make a fluffy filling. Spread 2 tablespoons on four brownies. Top each with a remaining brownie to create a sandwich.

Ice top of each sandwich with colored frosting; garnish with whipped topping and additional cherries or colored sprinkles, if desired. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Serves four.
