Ingredients
– 1 box yellow cake mix (vanilla can be used as alternative)
– 2 (21 ounce) cans cherry pie filling
– 1 teaspoon almond extract (optional, divided: half teaspoon per can of pie filling)
– ½ cup salted butter (1 stick), melted (alternative: sliced into squares)
Instructions
1-Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray to ensure nothing sticks.
2-Stir half of the almond extract into each can of cherry pie filling for an extra flavor boost.
3-Pour both cans of cherry pie filling into the prepared baking dish, creating a juicy base layer.
4-Evenly sprinkle the yellow cake mix over the pie filling to cover it completely.
5-Slowly pour melted butter over the top of the cake mix or distribute sliced butter evenly on top for full coverage.
6-Bake for 50 to 60 minutes until the topping turns golden brown and the edges bubble.
7-Serve warm, and if you like, add a scoop of ice cream for a special touch.
