Description

Cherry dump cake with pie filling, cake mix, and melted butter. From Alissa at Yummy Dishes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cans (21 ounces / 595g each) cherry pie filling
  • 1 box (15.25 ounces / 432g) yellow cake mix
  • 3/4 cup (170g) unsalted butter, melted
  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter a 9×13-inch pan.
  2. Spread both cans of cherry filling. Stir in the salt and almond extract if using.
  3. Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly. Do not stir.
  4. Pour melted butter over the mix, covering as much as you can.
  5. Bake 40 to 50 minutes until the top is golden and the edges bubble. Rest 15 minutes.

Notes

If dry pockets of mix remain, drizzle a spoon of extra butter. Vanilla ice cream is optional. Chocolate cake mix is a different dessert — keep this page on yellow mix and cherries.
