Take out of the oven and let the bars cool entirely in the pan placed on a wire rack. After about one hour, you may transfer the whole pan to the refrigerator in order to expedite the process.
Prepare the frosting, if desired: Combine the icing ingredients by whisking them together. If you want to have a thinner consistency, you may add more milk. Pour a little amount of liquid, such as a sauce or glaze, evenly over the bars when they have cooled.
Remove the bars from the pan by using the edges of the parchment paper liner and transfer them onto a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut the squares into slices, ensuring that you clean the knife between each cut for a tidy result.
To preserve any remaining cherry pie bars, whether they have icing or not, just cover them and keep them at room temperature for a maximum of 2 days. Alternatively, you may store them in the refrigerated for up to 1 week.
