I made this ( it is great) I had the butter come to room temperature and wonder if that is best or melt the butter?
I melt the butter in this recipe but I don’t think it will make much of a difference. Thanks!
Can you use fresh cherries ? If so how much ?
I have always made it the way the recipe says Alicia.
This looks so good can it be double and put in a 9×13 pan?
Yes, you could double it, Gaye.
I don’t think there are any dessert dishes on the site that would be low cal. You would just have to sift through the recipes and see what you come up with Mike. Probably some meat or vegetable recipes you could use.
Sounds great. Can’t wait to make this recipe.
You and me both, Ellie! Have a great evening.
I am an oaty person, too. 🙂 And ice cream adds to the goodness of most anything. Thank you for another great recipe!!
