Quick Cherry Cobbler Dump Cake Recipe

This Cherry Cobbler Dump Cake features a layer of cherry pie filling topped with a cake mix and butter, creating a delightful cobbler-like texture. The recipe takes about 50 minutes from start to finish and serves 8 people.

Ingredients

1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Layer the Cherry Filling: Spread the cherry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Add Cake Mix: Evenly sprinkle the dry cake mix over the cherry filling, covering it completely.
Drizzle with Butter: Pour the melted butter evenly over the cake mix. Do not stir; the butter will create a crust as it bakes.
Optional Additions: If using, sprinkle chopped nuts over the top for added texture.
Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving. Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
