Quick Cherry Dessert
2 sticks butter or margarine
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling
Powdered sugar to dust over top, optional
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs.
Beat until light and fluffy. Add the almond extract. Stir in the flour and
baking powder. Mix until smoothed. Butter a 13 by 9 inch cake pan. Turn the
mixture into the pan. Spoon the pie filling into the cake, in 16 spots,
spacing 4 spoonfuls evenly in each direction. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 to
50 minutes, or until golden and cake tests done. Filling will sink into the
cake while baking. To serve, cut into 16 pieces. Place bottom side up on
serving plate. Dust with powdered sugar, if used. Spoon slightly sweetened
whipped cream over each serving, if desired. This is great served warm!
Tips:
For blueberry dessert, substitute blueberry pie filling for the cherry
filling.
Makes 16 servings.
