Frosty Cherry Bars

Our family's favorite at Christmas, but would be good for any festive occassion! Easy recipe for moist cherry bars with buttercream frosting, starts with Duncan Hines French Vanilla or other moist cake mix. Don't overcook - just enough for the center to spring back when tested with your finger for doneness. Keep covered in Saran and cut as you need to serve to retain moisture.
