Made these last night, are not too sweet, but very good. I had a can of cherry pie filling I wanted rid of, so went recipe searching....needless to say they won't last long in this house..just enough sweetness to be satisfying..

How To Make cherry squares

Step 1

Cream butter and sugar together until very light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then beat in the extracts. Gradually mix in the flour until well incorporated.

Step 2

Spread 3/4 of the batter in the bottom of a 9"x13" pan lined with parchment paper. Scoop cherry pie filling over batter in pan.
Step 3

Drop remaining batter by spoonfuls over the cherries. Bake at 375 for 45 min. Let cool completely before slicing and serving.
