   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan and set aside.

2. Mix the Base:

   • In a large bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, cherry pie filling, almond extract, and eggs. Stir until well mixed, ensuring all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

3. Bake:

   • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

4. Prepare the Frosting:

   • While the bars are baking, prepare the frosting. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, and milk. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.

5. Boil and Blend:

   • Once the mixture reaches a boil, let it cook for 1 minute, continuing to stir constantly. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips until smooth and creamy.

6. Frost the Bars:

   • Once the bars are done baking and have cooled slightly, pour the prepared frosting evenly over the top. Spread the frosting with a spatula, covering the entire surface of the bars.

7. Serve and Enjoy!

   • Allow the frosting to set for a few minutes before slicing the Cherry Bars into squares. Serve them on a platter and watch as they disappear within moments! Enjoy the delightful combination of cherry and chocolate flavors in every bite.
