Ingredients

Scale

Fruit Base

  • 2 (21 ounce) cans blueberry pie filling

Cake Topping

  • 1 box vanilla cake mix
  • 1 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly coat a 9×13 inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Layer the pie filling: Evenly spread the blueberry pie filling across the bottom of the prepared baking pan to create a juicy base layer.
  3. Add the cake mix: Carefully sprinkle the vanilla cake mix evenly over the blueberry filling, making sure to cover the fruit completely.
  4. Pour the butter: Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the cake mix, which helps create a crispy, golden crust as it bakes.
  5. Bake the cake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until the top turns a beautiful golden brown and the filling bubbles at the edges.
  6. Cool before serving: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes to set before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use canned blueberry pie filling for convenience, but fresh blueberries with a bit of sugar and lemon juice can substitute if desired.
  • Ensure the butter is fully melted for even distribution over the cake mix.
  • Letting the cake cool slightly before serving will help the layers set and improve the texture.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special dessert.
