Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling
- 1 (15.25 ounce) box yellow cake mix
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Pour the entire can of cherry pie filling into the prepared baking dish. Spread it evenly across the bottom.
- Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the layer of cherry filling. Do not stir or mix the layers.
- Pour the melted butter slowly and evenly over the dry cake mix layer.
- Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly around the edges.
- Let the cake cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use a white or butter cake mix instead of yellow.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
- If you prefer a crispier topping, use slightly less butter, about 3/4 cup.
