Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
• Pour cookie mix into a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture is crumbly and coarse. Reserve 1 1/2 cups crumb mixture; press remaining crumbs into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
• Bake crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove partially baked crust and leave oven on.
• Beat cream cheese, sugar, egg, flour, and vanilla extract together in a bowl using electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
• Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over the partially baked crust. Spread cherry pie filling over cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle reserved crumbs on top.

CHERRY CREAM CHEESE BARS

Steps:

• Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F.
• With a stand mixer, cream together the butter, sugar, and salt until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at time. Beat well after each addition. Then, put in the vanilla and almond extract. Finally, gradually add in the flour and baking powder.
• Spread about 2 1/2 cups of this batter into a greased 15x10x1-inch baking sheet. (I found it easiest to use an offset spatula greased with a little cooking oil to spread out the batter.)
• In a medium-size bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, and egg. Add this on top of the first layer of batter. Then, spread out the cherry pie filling.
• Drop the remaining batter by spoonfuls over the filling. Bake about 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan on a wire rack.
• Once the bars are cool, in a small bowl mix together confectioners' sugar, extracts, and enough milk to reach a drizzling consistency. Drizzle over the top.
