Instead of making a cherry pie, make these cherry pie bars. It's easier and just as good. Serve with ice cream while they are still warm, if desired.

• 2 c. sugar
• 4 eggs
• 1 1/2 t. vanilla extract

• 42 oz. cherry pie filling
• glaze:
• 1 c. powdered sugar
• ½ t. vanilla extract
• 1 t. almond extract
• 2-3 T. milk

2. Cream together butter and sugar; add eggs, beat well; beat in extracts.
3. In a separate bowl, combine flour and salt; add to the creamed mixture. Mix until combined.
