INSTRUCTIONS
Cream together butter and cream cheese with mixer until thoroughly
blended. Using a pastry blender, cut in flour til it looks like it may
hold together if you squeezed some or it into a ball. Stop. It's done.
(If you overmix, it will be tough). Chill well. When chilled, cut in
half, using one half of the dough to pat into a 9 inch glass pie dish.
Chill again. Filling: Combine all the ingredients for the filling and
let stand for 30 minutes stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, take
reserved dough and place between 2 sheets of waxed paper. Roll out
large enough for top crust. Pour cherry filling into pie dish and top
with rolled crust. Make attractive slits and bake at 400 degrees for
about 40 minutes. From the personal MM recipe database of Sandy Gamble
