sweet inspiration & fun baking ideas

Ok, that looks AMAZING! Yummo! I have only been reading your blog a little while, but I love it. I am a little terrified of most of the things you make…but this truly looks so easy and good…I am putting in on the list of to try.

I think I am also attempting your football cookie things this weekend. Let’s hope I don’t make them weird looking!

thank you for showing this. actually, im baking this right now ! but it looks like there’s a little too much butter. i’m guessing i didn’t cut up the pieces the same size. so is that fine ?

Made it. Devoured it. Loved it. Thank you!

this was a hit! made it for dinner last night. thought it was peaches in heavy syrup (oops) but i bought lower calorie vanilla ice cream so it all evened out. :)

my boy scout tells me they make this all the time on campouts, but they never use the brown sugar…guess what’s going in his patrol box next camp out. LOL

thanks!

HELLO, YOU ARE FANTASTIC!!!! Sorry, but what is yellow cake mix??? I live in Spain thanks

Love this! Just made it with cherry filling and am on my second piece! Husband is going to hate me when he gets home for making him break his diet!

I made this yesterday for a potluck and it was really yummy. everybody just loved it and it got over in no time.

Made this last night, It’s AWESOME!!! So easy and delicious. I made it without nuts as the kiddo’s won’t eat them, but terrific anyways! Thanks for another great recipe!!!

I made this the other day for my family with pecans instead fo walnuts (mom has an allergy). Despite my dad not liking pecans much, it was a big hit, and even he loved it. Great dessert!

made this dessert today for a Superbowl party and it was a HUGE HIT. Everyone loved it. Can’t wait to try it with apples. Thank you!

I tried this tonight, and it was super easy and fast to make. One drawback is that it was a little too sweet. Perhaps it was because I used heavy syrup and not light.

Nevertheless, it was still very yummy and a big hit. I will try again with the light syrup to see if it makes a difference.

I add a can of whole berry cranberry sauce to this recipe and make it every Thanksgiving. It’s always a huge hit!

I made this yesterday for the big game! It was a hit! It was gone in an instant! Yum Yum!

hiii!!! i’m making this for my husband b-day instead of a cake and i just take one out of two from the oven and it taste so delicious,thanks!!!!! my hubby love it!!! our party will be a hit latter tonigth!!! and yess!! we’ll serve it with vanilla ice cream!!!

I mad this today and it was a disaster. The cake mix did not mix with the peach juice and its ended up coming out the oven with crisped brown sugar and them melted butter all over and dry cake mix on top of the peaches. It is still runny like the peach syrup and thats it. We can’t even eat it. What did I do wrong?

Thank You so much for this recipe!! I made two pans of this delish dessert for Super Bowl and recieved complements all night!! Thanx Bakerella:)

do I mix the cake mix as instructed on the box or do i just put the cake mix in as it comes in the box?

I decided to try this while we were snowed in this weekend. All I can say is WOW – super easy and DELICIOUS. Served warm with vanilla ice cream is a MUST. Thanks Bakerella – you have (unknowingly) ruined my chances of fitting into my wedding dress…LOL…

That looks like my great gramma’s peach cobbler recipe – EXCEPT, put she put the cake mix/butter batter on the bottom. As it baked, it rose and the peaches sank to the bottom.

My fiance made something similar to this for me one of the first times we hung out! It was his mom’s recipe (though I’m sure not original) and it was called Blueberry Crunch. Essentially the same thing, just with blueberry pie filling and no brown sugar or walnuts. So delicious but SO rich – I could hardly eat a ramekin full! I love peaches though so I must try this!

Hi, I have a question.. So, I can only use a small oven right now. If I make two dishes using 6×9 dish, how long should I bake each dish? I hope someone can answer, thank you in advance.. ^^

I’ve made versions with blueberry and pineapple before. Super delish and easy. Question though. How do you store leftovers?? Room temp covered or in the refrigerator?

My mom has made this for years using all types of canned fruit! We call is jiffy cake and love every bite!

Peaches are my absolute favourite fruit! When they’re in season I am definitely making this. But if I can’t wait til summer then there’s always canned peaches. Yum!

Showed this recipe to my boyfriend last week and when we were looking for some sort of dessert to go with dinner tonight he wanted to make this. So I pulled up the bakerella site and let him go to town with it! Turned out amazing! I had some leftover baklava nut mix (walnuts, cinnamon, sugar, etc) that we used on the top…the hint of cinnamon was yummy!

After seeing all of the other versions on here, I bet I can convince him to try another variation!

SO GOOD! No ice cream was necessary!

how it use not butter because my auntie not like butter.. i need for baking that not use butter milk n cheese pls?

MMmmmmm! I’m from SC, one of the great peach states and I’ll have to make this with our fresh peaches. Stop on by and look up my peach cobbler recipe that is very unusual to say the least, but yummy like yours. I need to find your “Follow” button now! Bye for now, Roz

WAUW!
First of all, I want to congratulate you for the fantastic work you do with baking and your blog… I have NEVER seen such a tasteful work ! :DDD
But besides that, the reason for the comment is actually this recipe! I was reading it and when i saw the “yellow cake mix”…well…I stopped.
Cause you see.. I’m from Portugal and here we don’t have so many ingredientes and other things for baking, in the supermarket.
What is the “yellow cake mix”?? Can you explain that to me? If yes, please send the answer to my e-mail if you don’t mind *.* !!!!
I’ll be SO GRATEFUL :DD

Keep doing the good work!
I’m looking foward for new post’s!:D

Thank you!

P.S. – My email is sereian1@gmail.com

Thanks again !

it’s really good and easy! yumyum. im hunting for more recipes on your web now!

I am making this right now. It’s so easy and no mixing or cleanup required. Can’t wait to try it wit some ice cream anfd then blog about it on my blog. :) Thanks Bakerella!!!

Finally made this today and it is great and yummy. I am going to try with other fruits as well.

Can I do this with canned lychees?

Bakerella thank you so much for sharing this dessert! I made it for our SuperBowl party and it was a hit! YUMMM! My husband loves Peach pie and since my grandma died the poor guy hasn’t gotten a peach anything. He really liked it and was happy that I thought of him when making it!

I made this cake, and it was the belle of the ball! I switched out the walnuts with pecans, just because that’s what I had laying around the house, but it was great! Plus, using the pecans helped give it a more fun name: Pecan Peach Crunch Cake!

This is the easiest, most delicious dessert – a new favorite! I made it for some girlfriends who raved and raved – I told them I got the recipe from your blog and they said “you have to go back and tell her just how much we love it!” Thanks for the great recipe – it was a hit!

So easy and so cute ! I love that !
Very bad i don’t speek english (*-*) very well because all your website is perfect !

such a great starting point to an infantly variable dessert. from switching the nuts, changing the fruit/filling, the cake flavour, adding choc chips/cinnamon, it is endless! thanks for the inspiration ; )

Thanks so much! I made this one night for my family and they loved it. We’ve made it four times since then, and my mom even adapted it to her sugar free diet. Just as delicious. :)

I make this all the time…it is just as good if not better than peach cobbler. Before adding the cake mix, I sprinkle a package of Peach Jello on top of the canned peaches. Yummo!!

WOW! I’m SO excited to try this recipe. A friend suggested it for my Book Club dessert… oh next week Wednesday, hurry up!

P.S. I love brown sugar “straight”… I do the same thing when I bake.

Do you think you could make this in a cupcake pan with liners to make it more single serve? I would like to make this for a party this weekend and I dont wanna bring my good dishes : )

Made this last week and we absolutely LOVED it! Who could have thought something SO simple could be SO amazingly delicious? I particularly like how I had to ‘cut’ the sweetness by adding ice cream on top. ;)

You could probably also add some quick oats,, instead.. or along with the nuts?

I just had to try this recipe. I had to make some substitutions though. Check out what I did:
http://spottedsmiles.blogspot.com/2010/03/peach-crunch-cake-remodeled.html

It looks very good! Cant wait to make tomorrow!!!!
I love your website!!!!!!!!!!!!

love dump cake I am a baker wanna be and I did it lol
I had this scalding hot fresh from the oven with freezing cold scoop of french vanilla ice cream and it was perfect what a sensation in my mouth thanks Bakerella !

I dont know if i made this correctly. I tried it out, baked it for 40 min like it said but it was so overly sweet (and i love sweet) that i couldnt eat much of it. It tasted like raw cake batter… was the cake batter supposed to cook at all? Im thinking i screwed something up with this one.

Just made this for Easter dessert. It is SO yummy! We all had seconds right away. Love your site!

This was awesome!! Served it for Easter dessert to my extended family. YUM! YUM! YUM!! A huge hit!!! Thank you!!!

I have made these for years for a quick dessert for reunions or potlucks. My favorite one to eat is using canned strawberry filling and a french vanilla cake mix. This one is so very rich, that you will want some ice cream or cool whip. I have never had any complaints about it! ………I hope some of you are willing to try it and enjoy it!

Every time I’ve made this recipe, it has gotten absolutely rave reviews. None of my roommates even like peaches, and they all absolutely love this dessert! This has become my new go-to recipe in a crunch!

This was so good. I’d never heard of this type of dessert until I saw it on your blog, now I’m seeing it everywhere.
I made a silly little post on my blog which you can see here: http://tomatoesforapples.blogspot.com/2010/04/cheater-cheater-peach-cobbler-pop-quiz.html

I used raspberry flavored canned peaches because they are my favorite and it was all that was in the pantry. Thanks for the recipe!

Wow. An aunt of mine sent me some peaches (seeing as it’s almost impossible to get them here), and I’m going to try this out the next time a few of my friends come over. I’ve been wondering what to feed them (and what to do with the peaches) for a while.

Does this recipe use Brown Sugar of Light Brown Sugar? Are they the same? Just want to get it right =)

i have a similar recipe but it calls for pumpkin instead of peaches… i love to make it around Thanksgiving. Great alternative to pumpkin pie. Very easy and delicious! Have to try the peaches now :)

Ok, it looks yummy and easy. But what the hell is ‘yellow cake mix’? I get, that it is some kind of ready-from-the-box, instant-cancer mixture, but what is it substitute for? It has been asked many times, it is a simple question, why no one is bothered to anwser?

OMG!! This was absolutely FANTASTIC!!! I printed your recipe and added it to a binder filled with other recipes I’ve collected online. For my birthday, my husband thumbed through my binder and made this for me. ABSOLUTELY DECADENT!! Probably one of the best desserts I’ve ever had – so thank you for sharing!! I wouldn’t change a thing. He served it warm with Haagen Dazs Vanilla Bean Ice Cream.

I made this the other night with pears and rasperries, and added oats to the top as well. It was soooooooo yummy!!! Thanks!!

Hi! I live in Brazil, and I just love this cake!! I add cinnamon and peanut. Tanks!! I realy love this dessert… you save my weekend!!

What if you are using fresh peaches (so much better than canned but only around for a short time!) and thus do not have the syrup?

I am so making this. When my oven is fixed that is. I love love peaches.

try using 1 can pinnaple in syrup, and 1 can of cherry pie filling, mix the brown sugar in withthe yellow cake mix, and adda litle more over the top, it make s the crust extra rich.

This is the easiest dessert to make and it impresses whom ever tries it. I’ve made it several times and each time everyone has loved it. I tell everyone to check out your website… Thank you for the lovely ideas, I always give you credit…

This is definately a keeper! I threw some quick oats in with my brown sugar, b/c my hubby hates nuts, and it was good, gave it a smidge of a crunch. Also, here is an extremely simple indulgent recipe of mine, you will LOVE it.
All you need is:
Vanilla ice cream- 2 scoops
Brown sugar- 1-2 tblsp.
Caramel Sauce- per taste

Put brown sugar in bowl, top with ice cream, then caramel sauce. TO DIE FOR!!!! I am NOT KIDDING, amazing. :D

Ahh when I cooked this it came out WAY too buttery…. is a stick of butter in America the same amount as a stick in Australia?

this is absolutely delicious. i found the recipe here and decided to try it for my birthday yesterday. it tastes really decadent, for how simple it was to make. we didn’t use ice cream to top it, though, but cool whip (both thawed and frozen, for variety), so it wasn’t so heavy and sweet. i may never have a regular birthday cake again!

This recipe is amazing! I just took my peach crunch cake out of the oven and its SO GOOD.

I just made this recipe and it was delicious! I have a tree nut allergy so, instead of walnuts, I used granola and it worked really well – the Back to Nature Classic Granola is made with fruit juices (including peach) so it was quite complementary and still added the crunch.

as at the time of reading this, i’ve just had dinner but i must confess i’m hungry all over just looking at this piece or art!

Instead of using yellow cake mix, can I just use vanilla cake mix since I have WAY too much of that?

WOW this definitely looks GOOD
im making my own yellow cake mix:

2 cups plain, white flour
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 cup non-fat milk powder

I made this tonight! Sooooo goooooood! THANKS very much.
Congrats on the book, I can hardly wait for my copy.

Just stumbled onto your beautiful site the other day, came across this recipe and decided to make it yesterday…with slight variations (pineapples, not peaches and instant oatmeal instead of nuts).

Can I just tell you I was the coolest mom around…even if it was only for as long as the dessert lasted? My kids (all 5 of them, ranging in ages from 13-18) LOVED, LOVED, LOVED, it! And I was so happy because of how “ridicuously easy” it really was! I am going to try out other recipes and will be a regular reader for sure. Your photography is stunning, your copy is well-written and easy to follow, and you’ve just found your new biggest fan! Thank you for this site! FANTASTIC!

I just made this the other night, It really is crazy-easy. And Soooo yummy. Thanks for sharing.

The wife and I just made this, and it certainly was easy. Knowing from the looks of the recipe it was going to be too sweet for our tastes, we cut the brown sugar in half.

Even having done that, I’m sad to say that we found that it was still so sweet that we just can’t eat it.

Thanks for sharing though!

i changed a few things:
1. use half canned peaches and half fresh
2. sprinkle with cinnamon
3. use less nuts and add some oats
4. also keep an eye on it! if it gets too dark cover it with foil and continue to bake :)

My mom and I have made this peach “cobbler” for years. Although we never did the brown sugar or walnuts… I can’t wait to make it adding the brown sugar and some pecans! I also think it would be DELICIOUS with apple pie filling! :) Thanks for sharing!

OMG… I just made this tonight while my husband snuck off to the gym! lol It. Is. TOTALLY. AWESOME! Thank you so much… I love all your posts and cannot wait to try the 14 layer cake for the holidays :-D

I made this with cherry pie filling and it is amazing! Thank You

this was amazing and so easy to make!!!

It was soooo easy to make!!! And it was soooooooo yummy!!

Well, i will admit, i can burn water! my cooking is horrible, but i am always in to try a new recipe.

my ex-mother in law always made dump cake so delicious, but when i tried it look more like wierd flat bread with lumps of fruit. Weird. o.0

I am trying your recipe, i will tell you how bad i did, or didn’t do. did my hubby eat, or did i voluntarily feed it to the neighborhood squirrels, raccoons, and possums? LOLOLOL!

OMG! OMG! I did it, and i tastes G-O-O-D!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,

I have one of these in the oven right now. The smell alone is worth making again.

i love these ideas! they are so creative and fun!!
my friend and i are about to try out one of your recipes! cant wait!

I just had a warm bowl of this topped with ice cream. It was delicious (and easy!)! Thanks for sharing! :)

I love peaches! This looks yummy to my tummy!

I’m making this now and I have 10 minutes to go to yummy tummy heaven!

Thank you

You’re awesome!

i just have to say that this is the easiest, most delicious last-minute dessert i’ve ever made! my family went CRAZY over it! <3

We definitely need to think a lot more in that direction to see things i can do about it.

Amazing! I have got to make that! Maybe when I’m in middle school. That seems easy enough.

OK, so I am not a big fan of peaches, so I made some substitutions. Apples and cinnamon apple sauce instead of the peaches. Spice cake mix instead of yellow cake mix. And I left off the nuts. Results…YUMMY! I mean wow! Too easy and delish!

OMG, just made this a few days ago. It’s Sweet Sweet Sweet! But it tastes nice, I just have to put less syrup and sugar in it I think.

its so good i want to thank all of u so

thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you

I made this with a 29 oz can of peaches and used pineapple upside down cake mix and it was AMAAAZING!

I make this cake except I use strawberry pie filling and a french vanilla cake mix… It is so awesome, but so rich! Love to serve it with some whip cream on top! I keep thinking I need to try it with a chocalate cake mix!

Just stopped by to let you know, i am still making this recipe for my hubby. he absolutely loves this, and he requsts it. i thought it would be a treat for today is Easter, he is devouring his 3rd bowl now!! Thank you bakerella!!
