  • 2 can cherry pie filling 21 oz each cans, or any fruit pie filling
  • 1 box yellow cake mix 15.25 oz box
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter 1 ½ sticks, cut into very thin slices

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Spread both cans of cherry pie filling evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the fruit filling. Do not mix the layers together.
  • Evenly distribute the very thin slices of cold butter over the top of the dry cake mix, covering as much of the dry powder as possible.
