Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 (21 oz) cans cherry pie filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread cherry pie filling evenly in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla with a hand mixer until smooth, about 2 minutes.
  3. Drop spoonfuls of the cheesecake mixture over the cherries and spread gently. Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the top, then pour melted butter over the mix, covering as much surface area as you can.
  4. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes until the top is deep golden and edges are bubbling. Let cool 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

If your cream cheese is not completely softened, microwave it for 15 to 20 seconds before mixing to avoid lumps. The center will still jiggle slightly out of the oven but will set as it cools.
