Equipment

  • 13x9-inch baking pan
  • Non-stick cooking spray
  • Oven
  • Spoon or spatula
  • Knife
  • Measuring cups
  • Oven mitts

Ingredients
  

  • 1 20 oz can of crushed pineapple with juice, undrained
  • 1 21 oz can cherry pie filling
  • 1 pkg Duncan Hines Cake Mix
  • 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 1/2 cup 1 stick butter or margarine

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Grease a 13x9-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. You can bake with other sized pans as well, but you’ll need to make certain changes to the recipe for that.
  • Dump the entire can of crushed pineapple with juice into the pan, spreading it evenly. This part enhances the flavor of the cake.
  • Dump the entire can of cherry pie filling on top of the pineapple layer. Spread it nicely.
  • Sprinkle the Duncan Hines Golden Yellow Cake Mix evenly over the cherry layer. This step sets the base of the cake.
  • Sprinkle the chopped pecans or walnuts over the cake mix. This ensures the look and the taste of the cake as well.
  • Cut the butter into small cubes and dot them over the top of the cake.
  • Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned. Take the cake out when it’s nicely baked.
  • You can serve the cake warm or at room temperature. You can serve it with a scoop of ice-cream.
