About the easiest dessert recipe EVER!!

It is my job to bring a dessert to our large family Easter dinner tomorrow. I decided to go with a recipe that my Mom taught me when I was new to the kitchen and all the scary appliances that come with it. Even though it is so simple that even my hubby could make it (actually he's pretty handy at the stove), it is still a family favorite. Here's the recipe (sorry the pic is missing the pie filling-I'd already taken the can out to the recycling bin):

Cherry Crunch

1 box of white or yellow cake mix
1 can of cherry pie filling
1 stick of butter

Preheat oven 350 degrees, Melt butter and combine with cake mix. Crumble cake mixture over pie filling. Bake for 20 minutes or until top is golden brown. (Really good with whipped cream or warm with vanilla ice cream)

I have made this recipe with other pie fillings, but always come back to the cherry-it's the hubby's favorite.

On a gardening note-I now not only have little marigolds, I also have grape tomatoes, tomatoes and (finally) green peppers! I was so excited to see that the peppers were finally up that I did a little dance. Now my daughter keeps asking me to do my "happy dance" for her. If I could only remember the steps! Happy Easter everyone-have a good one!
