Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup softened butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 tsp almond extract
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 (21 oz) can premium cherry pie filling
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 1 tsp almond extract (for glaze)
- ½ tsp vanilla (for glaze)
- Milk as needed (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until smooth.
- Add the room temperature eggs, almond extract, and vanilla extract; mix until creamy.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients until fully combined.
- Press half of the dough evenly into the bottom of a greased 9×13 inch baking pan.
- Spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the dough.
- Drop spoonfuls of the remaining dough on top of the cherry filling; it’s okay if it doesn’t cover completely.
- Bake for about 35–40 minutes or until golden brown on top.
- Cool completely before drizzling with glaze made from confectioners’ sugar, almond extract, vanilla, and milk to reach desired consistency.
