How to Make Cherry Slices
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a large 11x17 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Reserve a little more than 1 cup of the dough.
- Spread the remaining dough evenly into the prepared pan.
- Stir the almond extract into the cherry pie filling.
- Spread the cherry filling over the dough, leaving about ½ inch from the edge of the pan.
- Drop spoonfuls of the reserved dough over the cherry filling.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Dust with powdered sugar before cutting into squares or slices and serving.
