What is that anyway?


When my mom was in college, she got this recipe from one of her roommates. I've never come across anything quite like it. It's like pie that thinks it's cake! In any case, it's yummy! So I thought I'd share with you-or at least the recipe! ;)

Kristada

1/2 lb butter or margrine
1 1/2 C sugar
4 eggs
3 C flour
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cans pie filling (I usually use cherry, but you could do anything you like)

Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time. Add vanilla. Mix in flour. Dough will be sticky. Grease a baking sheet and spread about 2/3 of the dough on the pan. Pour pie filling onto dough. (If it looks like too much, you don't have to use all of both cans.) Spoon remaining dough onto filling. Try to spread it a little so it's not just blobs, but it you should still see plenty of pie filling.
Bake @ 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes.

Enjoy!

It looks like of like dump cake, which is even easier. Dump Cake:Pour a can of crushed pineapple then a can of cherry pie filling in a 9x12 pan...don't drain first. Pour yellow cake mix on top (just straight out of the box). Cut up a cube of butter and spread over that. Then put walnuts or pecans on top. Cook for 50 minutes.
Thats all!

I made Kristada with some blackberries we picked, because we didn't have enough for pie, and it was delicious! I even used olive oil instead of butter (for lack of) and it was really good!
