How to make Aunt Sonja's Cherry Squares

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients:
1 c. (2 sticks) butter, softened
2 c. sugar
4 eggs
3 c. flour
1/2 tsp. almond extract
1 tsp. vanilla
1 lg. can (21 oz.) cherry pie filling

Steps:

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Drop remaining batter by spoonfuls over the cherries. (I often use a small cookie scoop and spread the globs out a bit with my fingers.)
  • Bake at 375 for 45 min. Let cool completely before slicing and serving.
  • After being baked and sliced into squares, they can be frozen for up to three months, if you're so inclined.
