I found this recipe online and I had to try it out. A moist, delicious, and most importantly endlessly creative cake with only 3 ingredients? It had to be a scam.
The person who posted this recipe claims she got it from an Amish woman, which means that you don’t need any fancy mixers to prepare it. So I sent my mother out to get the 3 ingredients and, curious to see if it would actually make something, she obliged. The 3 ingredients are:
3 large eggs
1 box cake mix (any flavor)
1 can pie filling (any flavor)
I chose yellow cake mix and peach pie filling, but you can actually choose, for example, yellow cake mix and cherry pie filling and the cake will come out pink! Check it out:
You can also choose blueberry pie filling and the cake comes out blue or chocolate cake mix and the cake comes out, well, chocolate.
The recipe claims that the cake comes out so moist and so delicious that you don’t even need to frost it.

Size of pan and also pie filling?
9×13
I used A bundt pan and drizzled A glaze on it with confection sugar and water
I would guess the standard 15 ounce can of pie filling is what’s required. I would personally use an 11×9 or a 10×10 inch pan.
Hi Gary. I’d use a bundt pan actually, or you could use a 13×9 pan because a regular cake mix will fill two 8 or 9 inch cake pans which you’d normally stack for a layer cake. Alternately you could still use two 8 or 9 inch pans and just portion out half of the mixture into each, maybe give one to a neighbor? As for temperature, I bake most cakes at 350 degrees. She mentioned baking for 35 minutes which is important to know because with pie filling in it, an inserted toothpick to check for doneness would not yield a clean toothpick! Hope this helps and good luck! Bon appetite!
I am under the impression you used the cake mix dry and mix it in the eggs and pie filling..
Do you have to flour the pan?
Comes out better
It’s easier to remove if you do.
No
do you mix everything together before baking the cake?
Yes. You mix all three ingredients until blended before pouring into baking dish.
Would be nice to have the full instructions.
Just mix together and bake as per cake box instructions
The full instructions are actually there. Mix the 3 ingredCand bake. Can’t get much simply.
So, then, the recipe says you put the three ingredients into a bowl, mix them well, and bake for 35 minutes at 350 degrees. The whole thing from prep to clean-up took me 10 minutes
You bake the ingredients in a bowl!!?
😂 hopefully not. But I see what you mean, it’s a bit misleading and terribly funny.
Seriously???
Are you all kidding??? If you honestly have to ask these questions, you shouldn’t be messing around a stove! No, you don’t cook the cake in the mixing bowl!!! Really!?!?!?
If a Temptations bowl you can.
I guess you use the cake mix dry?
No, it says blend ingredients well.
Do you pour ise cake mix dry not go by directions on the box?
What are the instructions??
The instructions are: blend ingredients well and bake @350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. I would suggest using the toothpick method to make sure it’s properly baked through.
Insert pick in center of cake, if it comes out dry the cake is finished. If it comes out gooey, bake another 5-10 minutes.
If you have ever bald you should be smart enough to figure it out duh
Bald?????
Usually we put oil and water in the mix–but here there’s nothing about that. So what is the latest update on this recipe?
Just those 3 ingredients, nothing else.
I heated up my 2 cans of peaches in a pot with a little cinnamon half stick of butter poured them in a 9×13 pan then I poured the dry cake in on top sprinkled a little cinnamon and covered with pat’s of butter and caked till bubbling maybe 25-30 minutes in 350.
Did u mix it together
That’s a dump cake and completely different.
Just put the three Ingredients in a bowl and mix very well. Don’t add anything else. The butter pecan cake mix with apple pie filling is really good. We ate it plain, but adding ice cream would be great as would some frosting.
People read the article, it’s not that difficult to figure it out..
Amen
If you hit the next page button the recipe instructions is there
No they are not
Can’t argue with stupid, “Forest Gump quote”.
no eggs ??
3large eggs
NO eggs
Yes, it states three large eggs as one of the three ingredients in the recipe.
3 large eggs
1 box cake mix
1 can pie filling.
My best guess would be the 15 ounce can of filling, a standard size cake mix (not the small single layer size) and as for a baking dish, probably an 11×9 or a 10×10 square.
Mix with hand mixer or stir by hand?
I make it with devils food cake mix cherrie pie filling and walnuts. Just pie filling on bottom of pan top it with dry cake mix and pour. Melted butter over it add walnuts and bake
That’s a dump cake. This one is different. No layering. You mix all the ingredients together, then you put in 9×13 pan and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
Different recipe.
I put my peach pie filling in my blender for seconds and added that to my cake mix (yellow) and 3 eggs. Buttered a 9 x 13 casserole dish. Baked at 350 for 30 mins It was so moist and delicious. Will be baking another one trying another pie filling. Oh, we added cool whip on top when we ate it
Blender is a good idea,,,,,espcilly for peach pie filling!
It is so delicious. You will love it. Super easy three ingredients.
I did spice cake with apple pie filling. Delicious.
Perfect! This is the answer I was searching for.
What size can of pie filling.
Love this cake – yellow cake & peach. Great with strawberry & cool whip!
There is no picture of baked cake
Scary reading these comments (when the picture shows the ingredients) and know they vote, drive, etc.
Bahahaha! Right?!
Amen!!!
Who are these people.
I have reading these comments and thinking the same thing. Obviously I spend too much time in the kitchen baking.
I wouldn’t think an Amish woman would use a store bought cake mix or canned pie filling.
I shop in an Amish store and they sell all sorts of cake mixes,etc.
People it’s not that hard to understand there’s only 3 ingredients. Pretty simple
I have read these instructions from the top,……what seems to be the problem with some of these folks…..is it to simple for some….just do as it says I will be baking this tomorrow….this is as simple as Angel foood cake mix na can of crushed pineapple with the juice…simple… 2 ingredients….trust these recipes …they’re simple….thank you…
I have made this several times with chocolate cake mix, 3 eggs, and cherry pie filling. Mix well with mixer. Spray 9×13 pan and bake 35 min. Delicious a very moist cake
I also have added a teaspoon almond extract.
We live around Amush, and my husband has worked for them for over 35 years. Yes they buy box cake mixes and can pie mix.. They have Amish salvage stores around us and the Amish buy everything we do…
Please tell me the comments are a joke. How hard is it to follow the author’s instructions?!?! The comments are made up right? 🤦🏻♀️
Same people had to be told the coffee was hot at McDonalds lol
Where is “ open the oven, put it inside, close the oven” ? 😂
I have never laughed so hard reading these comments! 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you all for the comments! I had a hard day today and reading all of the responses to this post has me crying laughing 😂😂 …
I’ve made this with chocolate cake and cherry pie filling. Delicious
I thought I read somewhere that someone used an angel food cake mix and pineapple. Did I imagine that? Did they drain the pineapple?
I have made the angel food & pineapple cake. No, do not drain the pineapple juice. Mix the cake mix and pineapple juice together . That’s what makes it moist. I topped it with Cool Whip or real whip cream and a marshchino cherry on top.
Angel food cake mix and can of crushed pineapple. Mix together and bake. You did not imagine it. DELICIOUS
Different recipe. Open pineapple can dump contents of can, including juice, into angel food cake mix.
Anyone use lemon pie filling?
That could be great with lemon cake mix and canned lemon frosting. Thanks for this idea. I love lemon desserts
Do you melt the butter?
There is no butter…read the DIRECTIONS, PLEASE!
After reading the stupid comments I now realize how Biden was elected. No common sense. Or in other words. No sense.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No that’s how Biden was conceived
You just had to ruin it didn’t you.. at least the FBI isn’t raid8ng Biden’s house
Absolutely!!
My answer to the person saying that all these dumb comments shows how Biden was elected. And to the person speaking about houses being raided…Biden is so incompetent he has to be shown where the bathroom is cause he can’t make it there to use it and that was on YouTube.
lol
Right on!
Making it with blueberry filling and lemon cake mix. Can’t wait to try it.
OMGEEEZ, after reading these comments I can understand why MAGAets still think what’s his face won the 2020 Presidential election
His name being Trump. Lol
Look who is Prez now. Great times, huh?? NOT!!!!!
Freaking idiots!!
People sure are making a simple recipe complicated. Can’t believe some of the questions 🤪
I needed a good laugh!
The readers reminded me of my 1st graders after I give instructions!!! 😂😂
I used a yellow butter cake mix and 3 eggs, and apple pie filling.
Served warm with a larg dab of applesauce on top. Delicious
OMG some of the comments on here!!!
No comment is dumb! Ask questions, that’s how we learn! Unless you have been baking many years, help is always appreciated! Enjoy helping others! And enjoy this delicious cake! Thanks
🤦♀️
Can’t believe people are asking such stupid questions. Geeze it’s simple, don’t try to make it difficult. 🤦♀️
Can you use chocolate pudding? My family does not like fruit pies.
Make a different recipe this isn’t for you
Omg these comments are hilarious! It’s three ingredients! 😂😂😂
So funny! I’ve had lots of fun reading these comments and can’t wait to make the cake! 😂😂
I know some seriously have no common sense
Can’t believe this!! Something so simple and no one can follow instructions!!
😂😂😂😂
I have NEVER seen such stupid questions for such a simple recipe!!! Have 95% of them never
baked or followed instructions???? They shouldn’t be allowed near a kitchen !!! But I will say the cake is great and you can substitute the fillings and cake mixes to what you’d like.AMEN!!
AMEN 🙏
