How To Make glazed cherry pie squares

  • Step 1
    Grease an 8 x 8-inch baking pan, set aside.
  • Step 2
    In a large bowl cream butter and sugar, add eggs and both extracts, beat well. In another bowl whisk flour and salt together. Add to the butter mixture, mix until combined. The batter will be a bit thick.

  • Step 4
    Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until toothpick tests clean.

    When completely cooled, cut into squares. Mix glaze ingredients together and drizzle over cooled squares.
