Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix with 1/2 cup of water, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, and 1 egg. Stir until just combined, then pour the brownie batter into a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking pan, spreading it evenly.

Once the brownies are halfway baked, remove them from the oven and evenly spoon the cherry pie filling over the top.

Sprinkle the crumbly yellow cake mixture generously over the cherry filling.

Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
