    cakeMix - Cherry Crumb Bars

    1 pkg. white (or yellow) cake mix
    1 1/4 cups rolled quick oats, divided
    1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) margarine or butter, room temperature, divided
    1 egg
    1 (21 oz.) can cherry pie filling or two cans of pitted sweet or dark cherries in juice, thickened (see below*)
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    1/2 cup chopped pecans
    Preparation:
    Heat oven to 350�. Grease and flour a 13x9-inch pan. Combine cake mix, 6 tablespoons butter and 1 cup rolled oats. Reserve 1 cup of this for crumb topping. To remaining mixture, add egg; mix well. Press into pan. Pour cherry filling over crust; spread to cover. In large bowl add remaining 1 cup crumb mixture, 1/4 cup oats, 2 tablespoons butter, nuts, and brown sugar. Mix well. Sprinkle over cherries. Bake 30-40 minutes. Southernfood.About.com
    *If using canned (15 oz each) cherries in juice, pour into a 2-quart saucepan. Combine 3 tablespoons cornstarch with a little of the juice and stir to dissolve; stir into cherry mixture. Add 1 to 4 tablespoons of sugar, or to taste. Turn heat to medium-high and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until thickened. If needed, thicken more with a little more cornstarch dissolved in a small amount of cold water.
