Scale
Main Blueberry Ingredients:
- 2 (about 21 ounces / 595 grams) cans blueberry pie filling
- 2 cups (about 10 ounces / 280 grams) fresh or frozen blueberries
Cake and Butter Ingredients:
- 1 (15.25 ounces / 432 grams) box yellow, white, or lemon cake mix
- 1 ½ sticks (6 ounces / 170 grams) cold unsalted butter
- Additional unsalted butter for greasing the baking dish
Optional Serving Ingredient:
- Vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and position the rack in the middle of the oven for optimal heat distribution.
- Generously grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with a light coating of butter to prevent sticking.
- Pour the blueberry pie filling into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom to create a vibrant fruit base.
- Carefully sprinkle the entire box of cake mix over the pie filling, ensuring complete and uniform coverage.
- Slice the butter into thin, delicate pieces and meticulously arrange them across the cake mix layer, making sure to cover the entire surface completely.
- Gently scatter fresh or frozen blueberries on top of the butter layer, distributing them evenly for bursts of additional fruity flavor.
- Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 60 to 65 minutes, watching for a golden-brown color, bubbling edges, and a crispy, caramelized crust.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
- Optional: Complement the warm cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent dessert experience.
Notes
- Toss fresh or frozen blueberries for an extra burst of fruity goodness right before baking.
- Layer ingredients carefully without mixing to create a magical, rustic dessert that looks effortlessly delicious.
- Choose butter slices strategically to ensure every bite has a rich, golden-brown crispy top that melts in your mouth.
