Easy Cherry Bars

What do you think, which dessert have my family and I eaten most times this summer? You will surely think it’s some decadent chocolate cake or a beautiful cupcake… but no, it’s Easy Cherry Bars. These dessert bars made with fresh cherries are so sweet and flaky – you won’t be able to resist them!

Sesame Cherry Bars

Cherry Bars Summer Dessert Recipe

Well, I shouldn’t waste your time any more, so I will tell you what’s happening. The whole story with these simple Cherry Bars was really started up by mom. When we went to her home a few months ago, mom made this very simple treat for dessert.

„Woow, this is so sweet and refreshing!”  my husband was simply fascinated by this bars while it was unbearably hot outside.

„And this sesame is really great with these bars“ he was continuing to give compliments to my mother’s cakes.

And so, buoyed by her great success of her simple Cherry Bars, mom promised that she will make them again when my husband and I come by next time.

And she really did so, but the second time, the bars were not so successful and my mother was simply desperate.

„This is a catastrophe. It’s the first time they are not successful“, my mother was falling into despair, but we didn’t really see that much of a difference.

Sesame Cherry Bars

Of course, after this „faliure“, she decided to make another round of Cherry Bars just a few days later. This time, they were perfect.

And so, by no fault of ours, in only a few days, Cherry Bars were on our menu three times 🙂

And so, in an effort to preserve this story, I decided to put mom’s bars on this blog, but my version of them. Although mine were not so juicy and decadent like mom’s, it was worth making them. And if you want a fast and refreshing treat for these hot summer days, these cherry bars could be a really good choice. Just try it !!!

I made these yesterday with frozen cherries and a crumble top. I ended up putting 2 lbs of cherries over the first layer of the bar mixture and when I poured the other half of the mixture over the top I decided to put the other 2 lbs of cherries on top of that (without juice) and add a crumble topping. The middle layer of the bar mixure ended up being kind of custardy-we tried cooking it for for an additional 40 mins but it just would not firm up. Was it the moisture from the frozen cherries??

Hi Erika, yes it was prabably because you use frozen cherries.

Hi Nadine, I think it will be too much liquid for this recipe.
