Recipe by:

"My mum taught me this recipe when I was just learning to bake, and I still use it for parties as it is a crowd-pleaser. Having only 3 ingredients it is super quick and easy to make. A dollop of vanilla ice cream tops it very well."

Footnotes

  • Cook's Note:
  • Any pie filling works great with this recipe.
  • I've found that when serving, it is easier to use a large serving spoon to dollop out a spoonful rather than try and cut it like a cake (the pie filling is NOT a solid base, thus the cut is lost in the cake mix topping).
  • Tip
  • Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.

I cooked this in my crock pot since the weather is so hot this summer. It can cook 4 hours on low or 2 on high. I do use a stick of melted butter and this time I threw some pecans on top.
