This easy dessert will definitely be a hit with your guests!
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
In a mixer, cream together butter and 1/2 cup of sugar.
Add flour, baking powder, and salt to butter/sugar, mixing in milk in between additions of dry ingredients. Beat together until smooth.
Pour batter into greased 8×8 baking dish and put drain cherries evenly on top. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of sugar on top of cherries. Pour saved cherry juice on top.
Bake at 375ºF for approximately 40 to 45 minutes.
Serve warm or at room temperature and top with a dollop of ice cream if desired.
Note: You can double this recipe by doubling all ingredients, except cherries. When doubling, use 2 cans of cherries and reserve juice from both cans. Bake in an 8 x 11 dish.

Oh sweet heaven — this cobbler is fabulous! I think the difference is that you make the “batter” a lot like a cake…. creaming the butter and sugar, etc. Oh boy, the taste is fabulous and I love the amount of the cherries. Oh and good call on the ice cream… it definitely is the “cherry” on top. 
Thx for sharing this recipe!
