This is my go to dessert.
I seem to always keep the ingredients in my pantry (pie filling always goes on sale this time of year and I stock up).
It is also a great dessert to prep ahead of time when bringing someone a meal. I just use a disposable pie tin and send it with cooking instructions so it is warm and ready when they are.
It takes a few minutes to assemble, bakes while you are enjoying dinner, and even tastes great straight out of the fridge for breakfast the next day with your morning cup of coffee.
Just dump the pie filling in a pie dish.
{I'm partial to cherry, but everyone
in my family likes apple.}
Melt the 1/2 cup stick of butter in the microwave.
Stir in the cake mix until combined and crumbly.
Spread evenly on top of pie filling.
Bake at 350ยบ for 45 minutes or
until slightly brown and bubbly.
Serve with a generous scoop
of vanilla bean ice cream.
This is one of my favorite recipes! Except here, we call it dump cake because I dump everything in the dish and bake until it's done. I don't even bother combining the butter and cake mix. I just slice it and lay it on top and let it melt in the oven!
ReplyDeleteme 2 that is what I know it as but my recipe calls for a can of crushed pineapple & then pecans on top along with the butter, hmm soooo GOOD!!
DeleteDelicioso!!
ReplyDeleteThat's what I have to say about that...
I heart cherry.
They don't sell butter in sticks here...crazy eh? Just one big brick. No biggy..just a piece of trivia for your Tuesday ;)
Ooooh looks delish, in the UK we would probably call this a cherry crumble.
ReplyDeleteWe call that a dump cake as well. even better if you layer in some pineapple. Great with strawberries too.
ReplyDeleteA good friend of mine makes this...now I know why I love it. BUTTER. :)
ReplyDeletemust make today.
ReplyDeleteyum!!!!
kay. yum.
ReplyDeletebut i'm actually looking for um, printable recipe cards or some way to type recipes on to them online and then print.
and that one is super cute.
Thanks!
Looks perfect! Cobbler is my favorite :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't know if that is a table cloth or what.. but those polka dots are seriously cute!
Sounds delicious to me!!!
ReplyDeletethis looks simple enough for even me to make. one question: is one stick of butter 1/2cup or 1/4cup? your stick looks littler than my sticks.
ReplyDeleteAshlee I don't know where you are from, but I'm from San Antonio and we do the same thing. Fantastic every time!! We usually make blueberry with a small can of pineapple mixed in...delicious
ReplyDeleteLove this recipe! I have a similar one using pumpkin pie filling, spice cake mix, and adding nutmeg and cinnamon. YUM
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing! I LOVE your super easy, super yummy recipes. Life is busy enough to not need complicated recipes, especially desserts which we always seem to need for church, bake sale, meetings, etc..
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try this one on my bible study ladies!! :)
Kind Regards,
Nicole
I make this, or at least something very similar. We call it a dump cake and we also add a can of crushed pinapple to the cherry pie filling...Yum!
ReplyDeleteMy mama made this all the time...I love it...however, I don't have the recipe, so this is perfect!!
ReplyDeleteThat IS ridiculously easy. You should totally be embarrassed. I will be too, when I make that tonight... :P
ReplyDeleteThis looks SO yummy. I'll definitely have to give it a try next time I need a dessert! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday!
Here in Michigan that is referred to as Dump Cake :) Super easy and yummy! We put pie filling in pan dump cake mix on top and poor melted butter over the top then bake!!
ReplyDeleteYUMMY!! I make it w/ sliced peaches in heavy syrup and just drizzle the melted butter over it. And I eat the leftovers for breakfast too - it has fruit in it, so it's good for you, right?
ReplyDeletemmmmmmmm comfort food :)
ReplyDeleteYou have made my husband very happy because cobbler is his favorite. I am happy because that is sooooo easy! :)
ReplyDeleteyummmmmmy! and so easy! I am a lover of apple too! might have to try this very soon!!
ReplyDeleteand I need those box tops if you don't save them!!
Oooh!~ Gonna make this one soon!
ReplyDeleteI love this recipe too! It's SO EASY and delicious! Can't beat that!
ReplyDeleteoh that looks awesome! i will try it for sure:)
ReplyDeletegina
looove this! i make mine with blueberry and serve with whip cream. delish. so easy if you have unexpected company because the ingredients are always on hand! :o) great. now i need to make that this week.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so yummy and easy enough for me to try. Thank you so much for the awesome recipes. My family loves your sante fe soup so much my in-laws call and ask when I am making it next for the left-overs! You are an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteWe call that dump cake, our favorite uses canned peaches. Also I add a sprinkling of cinnamon to it and sometimes I sprinkle the top with brown sugar and chopped pecans to give it a little extra crunch, it's sooo good!
ReplyDeleteOh yum! I think I have everything I need in my pantry right now - making this tonight! Oh crap - I need the ice cream - got to run to Wal-mart, lucklily it's only 5 minutes down the road. Thanks Julie :)
ReplyDeleteEasy should never be embarrassing. As long as it tastes good, that's what's important. Your cobbler recipe looks delicious and from the comments, I believe it is. I work with Better Recipes and am presently focusing on Christmas dessert recipes. Try a Praline Pumpkin Torte or Twilight Pie. Get these and other Christmas dessert recipes at Christmas Dessert Recipes
ReplyDeleteOh girl-we loves us some dump cake! And the best part is you don't even have to use pie filling-canned fruit works well too. Using peaches with a butter pecan cake mix is yummilicious! Or a devils food cake with the cherry pie filling? Black forrest heaven. The combos are unlimited. I haven't made one in a while so thankies for the inspiration! (p.s. you can do it in a 9x13 pan too...nom nom)
ReplyDeleteI will be making this over the weekend & I am pretty sure this will be re-named Cobbler Crack. :)
ReplyDeleteThis same recipe works to make peach cobbler. Just use canned peaches in light in their own juice or light syrup.
ReplyDeleteOK . . . LOVE that idea!! I will try it soon. :)
ReplyDeleteEasy = good.
xox
cheryl
p.s... do you eat it in your new "bowlies" bowl?? ;)
yummy! wonderful recipe! thank you!!!

Oh man. I really should not have read this. It looks SOO good and I'm trying to lose weight by Christmas. Man, this is going to ruin my life.
ReplyDeleteIn a good way. :)
My mother-in-law makes this and calls it cherry dump cake.
ReplyDeleteIt is soooo good and she always makes it for my sister-in-law and I while we are pregnant.
It's been a while since I had it, but I am newly pregnant right now and just seeing it makes me crave it.
BIG TIME.
All I am saying is I might be making some today.
Thanks!
Love from,
Greta
You are my new cooking hero.
ReplyDeleteSo there.
Yummy!!
ReplyDeleteJulie, I want to know how you made that recipe card. It's so cute. I post lots of recipes and should really know how to do that. LOL!
yet another reason you are awesome. will be making asap. with a hat on to hide my roots.
ReplyDeletePS I second Mel.
ReplyDeleteCobbler Crack it is!
I love, love, love this cobbler! A friend introduced me to it last year except I add a little cinnamon to it. So easy but so impressive tasting!
ReplyDeleteWell Ashlee (first comment) said exactly what I was going to. For dump cake we use a 9x13 Pyrex, pour in the filling, sprinkle mix over the top and pour melted butter over that. Easy peasy. I do like the idea of mixing it though.... one more pan to dirty. :-)
ReplyDeleteI am really going to have to try this! It looks very good and sounds like someting even I can't mess up! Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteI hearted you on my blog.
ReplyDeletehttp://hagenhoopla.blogspot.com/2010/10/i-heart-joys-hope.html
i've always loved this kind of cobbler. I used to make it a bunch when i first got married and i guess i forgot about it. So glad to be reminded....i will be buying those ingredients tomorrow! thanks!
ReplyDeleteIt is my turn to make dessert for our Bible study group. This will be perfect!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I had to make this as soon as I saw it! :) Even though the only cake mix in the house was the one my soon-to-be 3-year-old had picked out for his birthday cake. I bribed him to get it. And it was awesome. For a bedtime snack last night and a sneaky breakfast for me. ;)
ReplyDeleteI usually make this cake in the crock pot. Same process, cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours!
ReplyDeleteOh my Goodness! I just made this for my hubby with apple pie filling and it was delicious! I can't wait until my in-laws come over again so that I can dazzle them, lol...Thanks so much=)
ReplyDeleteMade this for my Thanksgive work potluck - not a stich left and everyone was crawling over themselves to get the recipe. - thanks
ReplyDeletei know that i should share this with my girlfriends, but i want to keep it as my secret weapon!
ReplyDeleteYum!! I have it in the oven now. Lemon is really good too! Makes amazing Cakey lemon bars.
