Quick Cherry Crumb Cake (from mix)

Total time45 minutes

Ingredients
 
 

For the cake
  • 1 package Yellow Cake mix 18 oz, or from scratch
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 packet yeast
  • cup warm water
  • 2 eggs medium sized
  • 2 cans Cherry Pie filling 21 oz
  • ½ cup butter
For the Sugar Glaze
  • 1 cup powered sugar
  • 3 teaspoons milk

Step by Step
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350° F (180° C).
  2. Measure 2 cups of the cake mix and combine with the separate flour and yeast.
  3. Add the water and stir. Now add the eggs and stir again. It will be a thick, sticky glob – just get it all blended together. Let it sit for 10 mins for the yeast to activate.
  4. Use the back of a spatula to flatten the mix into the bottom of a greased 9×13" pan.
  5. Open the 2 cans of cherry pie filling and add it on top of the cake batter to the pan.
  6. In a separate bowl, combine the rest of the cake mix with the butter and mash with a fork. Use your fingers to combine until it forms a crumbly dough. Think about making biscuits – it is kinda like that.
  7. Then sprinkle the butter-flour mixture evenly over the cherry filling and bake at 350° F for 40 – 45 minutes.
  8. Let cool on a wire rack for a few minutes.
  9. In the meantime make the glaze: Mix powdered sugar with the milk and stir until smooth.
    Drizzle over the warm cake and serve!
