Amish Cake

I happened upon a cake recipe that seemed way too good to be true.  I had to try it anyway because the recipe is so easy with a ton of possibilities.

Everything you need: 

1 box of cake mix (any kind)
1 can of pie filling (any kind)
3 large eggs

Mix all the ingredients together and pour the batter into pre-grease 9x13 cake pan.  

Bake for 35 minutes at 350 degrees 

(or until a toothpick comes out clean)

I made a devil's food cake with cherry pie filling (chocolate covered cherries anyone?)  It smelled amazing as it baked and came out of the oven cooked perfectly.  Just looking at the cake, you’d have no idea it was made with pie filling.  Not only does this cake / pie filling combination taste amazing, it doesn’t even need frosting (which is great for those of us counting calories!)  It’s sweet enough with the pie filling and incredibly moist. 

 I got this recipe here, she calls this the “Are You Kidding Cake.”  I titled this "Amish Cake" because she got this recipe from an Amish friend of hers.

Suggested Cake / Pie Combinations:

Chocolate Cake Mix / Cherry Pie Filling

Butter Pecan Cake Mix / Apple Pie Filling

Pineapple Cake Mix / Blueberry Pie Filling

Strawberry Cake Mix / Strawberry Pie Filling

Strawberry Cake Mix / Blueberry Pie Filling

The possibilities are endless and delicious.
