Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup butter or margarine
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 eggs
• 2 cups flour

• 2 tsp. baking powder (sifted with flour)
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 1/8 tsp. salt
• 1 can cherry pie filling

Directions:

Cream butter and sugar; add eggs, one at a time, and beat well. Add dry ingredients, sifted 3 times. Add vanilla. The dough will be thick. Put about half the dough into a greased oblong pan about 9x12 inches. Pour cherry filling over dough in pan. Spoon remaining batter over cherries. It is not necessary to cover all of the filling; it will fill in during the baking. Bake in 325 degree F oven for 45 minutes or longer if necessary.
