Ingredients
  

  • 2 (21 oz) cans cherry pie filling
  • 1 (15.25 oz) box yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold, sliced thin

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the cherry pie filling evenly in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. Sprinkle the dry cake mix over the fruit, then arrange the butter pats in a single layer on top.
  3. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until the top is golden and the juices bubble around the edges. Let rest for 10 minutes.
  4. Scoop warm portions into bowls and serve with ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

The topping is crispiest right after baking. For the best texture, cool only the 10 minutes noted and serve soon after. If the butter pools in the oven, don’t worry, it creates those crunchy bits as it bakes into the cake mix.
