Cherry Squares

I have been making these Cherry Squares since the 1970′s! This recipe is always a big hit. The flavor is rich and buttery like a pound cake. If you don’t like cherries, just use your favorite pie filling. This recipe is super simple with basic ingredients. I always have a can of pie filling in my pantry.
