List of Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 egg
- 14 1/2 ounces canned tart cherries -- drained
- Butter Sauce:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/2 cup evaporated skimmed milk
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Beat the egg with a fork in a separate bowl and add the drained cherries to the egg. Add the egg/cherry mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir until well combined and until the batter no longer appears dry. (note: The batter will seem very dry when you first start to mix the egg/cherries into the dry ingredients. But you will find that the batter comes together nicely after a little stirring.) Pour into a greased 8-inch square baking dish. Bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack.
