Cobbler a la Traci

This has to be one of the fastest and easiest (and tastiest) recipes I've encountered. It comes to me via another one of my "super mom" friends who manages to do it all. Traci has two young children, works in the same stressful business as Annie and me, successfully runs her home, and can STILL show up to work every morning with a smile on her face and looking very stylish, indeed. She brought this cobbler type dessert to one of our many office potluck/birthday celebrations and was more than happy to share her recipe.

Cherry Cobbler

2 cans cherry pie filling
1 box white or yellow cake mix
1 1/2 sticks butter
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Put the cans of cherry pie filling in a 9 x 13 dish. Sprinkle the box of cake mix over the cherries. Melt the butter and drizzle over the cake mix. Sprinkle the nuts over the top, if desired. Bake at 350 F for 50 minutes.

The cherry pie filling can also be substituted with any of your other favorite fruit filling.

I'm telling you, it doesn't get any easier than that!


Thanks for saving the day, Traci!
