- 2 cans cherry pie filling 21-ounce
- 1 box chocolate cake mix 15.25-ounce
- 1 cup unsalted butter 2 sticks, melted
Warm your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly coat a 13x9-inch baking dish with non-stick spray for effortless cleanup.
Gently spoon the vibrant cherry pie filling into the bottom of the dish, spreading it out evenly.
Carefully sprinkle the dry chocolate cake mix over the cherry layer, creating an even blanket.
Drizzle the melted butter thoughtfully over the cake mix. Use a spoon to softly swirl the butter and cake mix together, just enough to moisten the top layer slightly without mixing into the cherries.
Bake in your preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until the top is beautifully golden and the cake is set. Avoid overbaking to keep it wonderfully moist.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before scooping out and enjoying.
Serve warm, perhaps with a dollop of light whipped cream or a small scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful treat.
