Ukrainian Cherry bars

 

 

Servings: 20

 

Ingredients:

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour

3/4 cup white sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup butter

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest

1 cup light cream

1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling

 

 

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch baking

dish.

2. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, salt and baking soda. Cut in

butter using a fork or your fingers until butter pieces are the size of small

peas. Combine the lemon juice, lemon zest, and light cream; mix lightly into the

dry mixture until a soft dough forms. Transfer to the prepared pan, and pat into

the bottom and slightly higher on the sides to hold in the filling. Spread the

cherry pie filling over the top.

3. Bake for 35 minutes in the preheated oven, or until crust at the edges is

golden. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

 

 

Variation:

Any type of fresh fruit may be used in this dessert, just toss with enough sugar

to sweeten. When using very juicy fruit, add a little flour to it to prevent the

juice from running out.
