1 Box yellow cake mix; (18-20
-ounces)
1/2 lb Butter; chilled
2 cn Cherry pie filling
1/2 c Nuts; chopped, optional
In a mixer blend the cake mix with the butter until just before it begins
to hold together. Take out and save about 1 cup of the mixture. Press the
remainder into the bottom of a 9″ x 14″ baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for
about 15 minutes, or until lightly brown. Pour the cherry pie filling over
the hot baked crust. Crumble the reserved cake mixture over the cherry pie
filling. Sprinkle with nuts, if you want, over the crumb topping. Return to
the oven for about 35 minutes, or until the mixture is lightly browned.
Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
