Ingredients
- 42 ounces cherry pie filling (2) 21 ounce cans
- 13.25 ounces dry box chocolate cake mix
- ½ cup butter cold and sliced ⅛ inch thick
- Optional topping: chocolate shaving or drizzle with chocolate syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° F and spray a 9 x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Dump the cherries into the bottom of the baking dish and spread in an even layer across the bottom.
- Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the top of the pie filling. DO NOT STIR!
- Place the sliced butter all over the top of the cake mix in an even layer.
- Place in the preheated oven and bake for 60 minutes until the filling is bubbling and the top is a little crispy.
- Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes.
- Top with chocolate shavings if you'd like.
- Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream on top.
Notes
- Use different cake mixes for a different flavor combination. S box of yellow cake mix, white cake mix or even butter pecan cake mix are all good choices.2. You can also play around with the fruit filling. Swap the cherry filling for crushed pineapple, apple pie filling, peach pie filling, strawberry pie filling, blueberry pie filling, etc. 3. You can even add drained pineapple with the cherries for a cherry pineapple dump cake recipe.4. For a flavor boost, a few drops of vanilla extract or almond extract can ramp up the taste.5. Toss in some chopped nuts for a crunchy element. Sprinkle sliced almonds, chopped walnut or chopped pecans on top of the fruit mixture before sprinkling the cake mix. You can even sprinkle with coconut flakes.
- Refrigerate: Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Freeze: Cool fully before wrapping in plastic wrap and freezing. Thaw on the counter and reheat before serving.
- Reheat: To warm like it's right out of the oven, place it on a microwave safe plate and heat at 50% power level for 30 seconds to one minute.
