FRESH BLUEBERRY & CHERRY CAKE BARS RECIPE (SIP BITE GO)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8" metal square pan with parchment paper coming up the sides, so it can be used to remove the dessert after it bakes. Grease the parchment paper with a stick of butter or butter spray.
• Melt the butter and sugar together on the stove in a pan on medium heat. Stir regularly with a whisk until the mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes. Add the vanilla and give the mixture a final stir. Turn off the heat, letting the mixture cool down for a few minutes while you work on the next step. If the mixture cools completely, you'll need to heat it up to lukewarm so it's easy to pour and work with in the next step.
• Pour the butter/sugar/vanilla mixture In a large bowl. Slowly mix in the eggs, while stirring the mixture with a whisk. Add in the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Mix the batter until combined. Then gently fold in the fresh blueberries and cherries to make the cake bar batter.
• Using a spatula, transfer the batter into the pan. Bake for 40-50 minutes, until the top of the berry cake bars are golden brown. The edges will cook faster than the center, which is perfectly fine and adds to the chewy texture of the bars. If the center of the batter looks very wet, keep the cake bars in the oven for a few more minutes. The texture should be similar to a brownie.
• Once the cake bars are done, let them cool for 15 minutes. Remove the dessert from the tray, let it cool for another 15 minutes. Then slice into bars. Two cuts in each direction will yield 9 bars. Store the fresh blueberry and cherry cake bars in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. (They taste great cold, too!)
