Cherry Dabble Cake

This three ingredient dessert is so easy and quick to throw together.  Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream on top and you’ll want to eat the whole thing at once and then lick the pan – or maybe that’s just my husband, Christian.

As mentioned in my previous post, my Hot Buttered Pretzels were deemed by Christian, “the best thing you ever made me” until I threw together this ‘lil dabble cake.  It was a typical scene, I ran to the store to pick up something I needed to make dinner when I spied Jiffy cake mix in an aisle.  It sparked the memory of  my mother making a blueberry/pineapple version of this and how delicious and easy it was.  So I scooped up the Jiffy along with cherry pie filling (Christian’s fave) and popped it in the oven while we ate dinner. When I served it up to him, instead of saying “thank-you”  he said he felt “betrayed and bewildered” and that I had been “holding out on him”.  Um, okay –  between the “from scratch” cookies, pies, cakes and other various desserts that I made him over the years,  I’m a jerk because I  hadn’t yet made him this masterpiece… this three ingredient masterpiece.  Bad Suzy.

Ingredients:

  • 1 21 oz can of cherry pie filling
  • 1 box of Jiffy yellow cake mix
  • 3/4 stick of butter

Directions:

Lightly grease an 8×8 pan. Pour cherries in pan. Sprinkle cake mix over cherries. Melt butter and drizzle evenly on top. Bake for 40-50 minutes at 350.  Get scolded by husband. Enjoy!

    I love the Bell Pepper Recipe. All the pictures make the recipes look easy.
    I had difficulty finding Jiffy Cake Mix. Friend says Walmart carries it.
    Cherry Dabble and the Apricot Bars may be my contribution for our church “coffee & conversation” because they look yummy.

      Thanks! If you can’t find the Jiffy cake mix, you can use half of a regular sized yellow cake box mix. The Jiffy is 9oz so make sure you use one that’s 18oz (some are 16oz I think).
