Taste of Our Home Tuesday: Peachy Keen Bars

I found this dessert on Pinterest and decided it looked too delicious to pass up!  I had some leftover cherry pie filling that I needed to use before it got old, so I decided to substitute that instead of the peaches.  It ended up making it pretty sweet, but after heating up a slice and adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream, IT WAS PERFECT!!  Next time I make this I want to use peaches.  As someone stated on Pinterest, "Best Pinterest recipe yet!"  Enjoy!
