Instructions Preheat oven to 375ºF. Unfold one pie crust and place in a 9-inch pie plate, pressing crust firmly into plate. In a large bowl, combine remaining ingredients; mix well then spoon mixture into pie crust, reserving 1/4 cup filling for garnish. Place remaining pie crust on countertop and, using a clean plastic cap of a soda bottle, cut about fifteen circles from the center, forming polka dots, leaving a 1-inch border around the edge. Place crust over cherry mixture. Pinch together and trim edges to seal, then flute, if desired. Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until crust is golden and filling is bubbly. Let cool before serving.
