📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13 baking pan with butter or line it with parchment paper. Set aside. Place the butter and sugar in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until creamed. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat again to combine.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until combined.
3
Spread about ⅔ of the batter in the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Top with cherry pie filling. Using a small spoon, dollop the reserved batter over the pie filling.

Glaze Instructions
6
Combine the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of milk in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Carefully add milk by the teaspoon, only as needed, to form a smooth consistency glaze that will pour off a spoon.

7
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bars. These are better on the second day as the bars will absorb some of the moisture from the pie filling. Slice and serve.
