Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 (21 oz) cans blueberry pie filling
  • 13.25 oz cake mix (French vanilla recommended)
  • ½ cup cold salted butter, sliced into thin squares

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare dish: Preheat your oven to 350℉ (175℃). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Add blueberry filling: Dump both cans of blueberry pie filling into the prepared baking dish. Spread it evenly across the entire dish to create a uniform fruit layer.
  3. Sprinkle cake mix: Evenly sprinkle the dry cake mix over the blueberry filling. Use the back of a spoon to distribute the mix evenly and cover the filling completely.
  4. Add butter slices: Place the thinly sliced cold salted butter evenly over the top of the cake mix layer. The butter will melt and create a crispy, golden topping.
  5. Bake the cake: Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm.

Notes

  • For best results, use cold butter sliced thinly to ensure even melting and crispy topping.
  • You can substitute the blueberry pie filling with other fruit fillings like cherry or apple for variety.
  • If you prefer a less sweet dessert, choose a less sweet cake mix or reduce the amount used slightly.
  • This recipe requires minimal prep and is perfect for last-minute gatherings or simple dessert cravings.
  • Serve warm alone or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
