4-Ingredient Chocolate Cherry Dessert Casserole
| INGREDIENTS | AMOUNT |
|---|---|
| Cherry pie filling | 1 can (21 oz) |
| Chocolate cake mix | 1 box (15.25 oz) |
| Unsalted butter, melted | 1/2 cup |
| Chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts, optional) | 1/2 cup |
Step 1: Heat the Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2: Spread the Cherry Layer
Pour the can of cherry pie filling into a 9×13-inch dish and distribute it evenly across the bottom.
Step 3: Add the Cake Mix
Sprinkle the dry chocolate cake mix evenly over the cherries, making sure the fruit is fully covered.
Step 4: Drizzle with Butter & Add Nuts
Pour the melted butter evenly over the dry mix. If you’re adding nuts, scatter them over the top.
Step 5: Bake Until Bubbly
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is bubbling, the edges turn golden, and the cake portion has set.
Step 6: Serve Warm
Allow it to cool for a few minutes, then enjoy it warm with ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
