Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

  2. Step 2

    In a bowl, mix 1.5 cups flour, 0.5 cup sugar, and 1.5 tsp baking powder. Cut in 0.25 cup butter until crumbly.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in 0.5 cup milk to make a soft batter. Spread into the pan.

    Scatter 1.5 cups cherries over the batter. In a small bowl, combine remaining 0.25 cup sugar and 0.25 cup flour; cut in 0.25 cup butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over cherries.
