How to Make Cherry Vanilla Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling and 1 (15.25 ounce) box of your favorite vanilla cake mix.
  4. Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 4 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir by hand until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
  6. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown.
  7. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before dusting generously with confectioners' sugar.
