Ingredients
Scale
Fruit Layer
- 42 ounces blueberry pie filling (2 cans, 21 ounces each)
Cake Layer
- 15 ounces lemon cake mix
Topping
- 12 tablespoons butter, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
- Layer Blueberry Filling: Evenly spread the entire 42 ounces of blueberry pie filling across the bottom of the prepared baking dish, creating a smooth fruit base.
- Add Cake Mix: Sprinkle the dry lemon cake mix evenly over the layer of blueberry pie filling, covering the fruit completely with a dry, crumbly layer.
- Top with Butter: Thinly slice 12 tablespoons of butter and distribute the slices evenly over the surface of the dry cake mix. Make sure the butter covers most of the cake mix to ensure a moist, golden crust.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and the blueberry filling is hot and bubbly.
- Serve: Let the cake cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for added indulgence.
Notes
- Use refrigerated or canned blueberry pie filling for convenience.
- Lemon cake mix gives the dessert a bright, tangy flavor that complements the blueberries.
- Butter should be cut into thin slices to melt evenly and create a crisp topping.
- For an extra touch, sprinkle some lemon zest on top before baking.
- This recipe is easily doubled for larger gatherings.
