The Ultimate 3-Ingredient Cherry Party Bars
If you are looking for that one “hero” recipe that never fails, this is it. These bars are the perfect marriage of a tangy fruit filling and a rich, creamy topping. I have made these for so many potlucks, birthdays, and holiday parties that I can practically make them in my sleep.
The best part? You don’t need a scale, a bunch of measuring cups, or even a professional mixer. Just three simple ingredients and a baking dish are all that stand between you and dessert heaven.
Ingredients You Will Need
-
1 Box White or Yellow Cake Mix: This serves as your base and the structural element of the bars.
-
2 Cans (21 oz each) Cherry Pie Filling: One can goes into the mix, and the other is dotted on top for that vibrant look.
-
3 Large Eggs: These act as the binder that turns the cake mix into a rich, custard-like batter.
Pro Tip: While the classic recipe uses cherry, you can easily swap this for blueberry, peach, or even apple pie filling depending on the season!
