Instructions:

Preheat Oven & Prepare Crust:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Combine flour, melted butter, and chopped pecans. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.

Bake for 15 minutes, then cool completely.

Cream Cheese Layer:

In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth.

Spread this pudding over the cherry layer.

Final Topping:
