First things first—grab your trusted slow cooker and give it a light spray with nonstick spray. We’re building foundations here—no stickage allowed.
-
Pour the cherry pie filling into the slow cooker and spread it out to create a fruity, tempting base.
-
Sprinkle the yellow cake mix evenly over the cherry layer. No mixing! Layers are the name of the game in this delight.
-
Place the thin butter slices on top of the cake mix, covering as much surface as possible. This is where the magic happens—the butter melts and mingles with the cake mix, creating a golden, crumbly crust. Bliss.
-
Cover and cook on low for 3–4 hours, until the top looks set and the edges begin to pull away slightly from the sides of the cooker.
