How to Make Cherry Cheesecake Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix, 1 large egg, and 2 teaspoons oil. Mix until just combined.
  3. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides (about ¾ of the way) of a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  4. In a large bowl, beat together 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (softened), ¾ cup granulated sugar until smooth.
  5. Add 3 large eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  6. Gradually add 1 cup of the dry cake mix from step 2 to the cream cheese mixture and beat until smooth.
  7. Gradually add ½ cup milk, ¼ cup cherry juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  8. Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust.
  9. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the center is just set. A slight jiggle is okay.
  10. Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack before topping with 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set completely before serving and enjoying!
