You Can Do a Lot with a Cake Mix (Idea #1)


One of my "Kitchen Truisms" is
"You can do a lot with a cake mix."
Here is one of my favorite uses.
It's so easy, it's almost a crime.
This recipe comes from my sister(in law), Terry,
and it's absolutely the best thing she ever gave me.
I use it a lot.
It's one of those recipes passed by word of mouth
and I'm not even sure of it's name.
I call it
Fruit and Cake Crumble.


You'll only need three ingredients.

Coat a large baking dish with cooking spray.


Spread two cans of pie filling in the bottom.
You can use any flavor you like.
I've tried them all, and they're all good.
In addition to cherry, I also favor
blueberry and apple.

Sprinkle a box of yellow cake mix over the fruit.


Cut a stick of butter into chunks...


...and dot the top of the cake mix with them.
Please, DO NOT use anything but butter here,
it just won't be as good.


Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes.


Serve, hot or cold,
with ice cream, on top or bottom.
It's a gift from the gods....
Other than indulging in this dessert,
I really like it because you can always keep
the ingredients on hand.
It makes a great dish when you want
something to take to a neighbor or friend.
Put the coffee on, I'll bring dessert...
