How to Make Mix In The Pan Cherry Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 13x9 inch baking pan with cooking spray or 2 tablespoons of oil. Tilt the pan to evenly coat the bottom.
  3. Evenly sprinkle the entire box of dry cake mix over the bottom of the prepared pan.
  4. Crack in the eggs and add the required amount of water as indicated on the cake mix box.
  5. Using a fork or spoon, gently stir the wet and dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix (about 2 minutes).
  6. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  7. Randomly drop spoonfuls of cherry pie filling (approximately 1 ½ cups) over the batter.
  8. Using a fork or knife, gently swirl the cherry pie filling into the batter, creating a marbled effect. Avoid overmixing.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before cutting and serving.
