Ingredients
- 21 oz canned cherry pie filling
- 20 oz canned crushed pineapple (with juice)
- 15.25 oz yellow cake mix
- 1 cup salted butter
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
Spread the canned cherry pie filling evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
Pour the crushed pineapple (including its juice) over the cherry pie filling and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the fruit layers, ensuring all the fruit is covered.
Slice the butter into thin pats and distribute them evenly across the top of the cake mix.
Sprinkle the chopped walnuts or pecans over the top for added crunch and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
Allow the cake to cool for about 10 minutes before serving to let it set.
Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally paired with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
