This was wonderful. I made a few changes, using 2 cups of home made raspberry sauce instead of pie filling. I mixed the cake mix and eggs first, then stirred in the raspberries. For the topping, my brown sugar was so hard that I put it in a bowl with the butter and melted them together. I then added 1/2 C oatmeal and 1/2 C chopped hazelnuts Perfect! I guess you can't go wrong with this recipe. Make it for breakfast or for dessert, it's delicious.

This is a great easy recipe! Co-worker brought it to work with apple and shared the recipe. I couldn't find hers and found this-pretty much the same and I brought it to work with peach pie filling. I did not use nuts but it turned out great and I think we will have this quite often at work and home! I did use a whole stick of butter on the top as I felt it was too dry for the brown sugar. I sprinkled just a tad more brown sugar on top and it was wonderful! MUST TRY:)

I thought this was very nice! I used peach pie filling and (roasted, salted) pecans for the nuts. I wasn't sure how 1 Tbsp of butter would be enough for the topping but it seemed to work fine (though it was pretty crumbly). The cake itself was very moist. I baked for 35 minutes which was perfect for my oven. Thanks for sharing! -June 5, 2010. Update: I see the amount of butter has been updated. I'll have to try it again with the new amount! Thanks :)

I have made this several times for church bake sales. I have used spice cake mixes and this time lemon cake mix. Both seemed to work fine and taste good. DH loves the fact that the cake is moist.

Great recipe to have in my back pocket, since I tend to always have these ingredients on hand. This was quite sweet, but I've got a sweet tooth so that's just fine by me. Made my house smell unbelievable. Thanks!!!
