Alright, so I decided to make a peach cobbler the other day. I’m not much of a baker, but I had a box of yellow cake mix and some peaches, so I figured, why not? Let me tell you, it turned out pretty darn good, even if I do say so myself.
First, I grabbed that box of Betty Crocker Super Moist Butter Recipe Yellow Cake Mix. Now, I know there’s a difference between the regular yellow and the butter recipe kind, apparently the butter one wants you to use actual butter. But honestly, I just grabbed whatever was in my pantry.
Then came the peaches. I used fresh ones ’cause it’s summer and they’re everywhere. The articles I read online said frozen or canned works too, but fresh seemed like the way to go. Frozen is probably better than canned, though. I just sliced them up – didn’t bother to peel them or anything. No need to be all fancy here.

I preheated the oven to 350°F like the internet told me. While that was happening, I dumped two big cans of peach pie filling into a baking dish. Yeah, I used pie filling because I found it. I thought it might be too sweet, but whatever, I went with it.
Next, I sprinkled that whole box of cake mix right over the peaches. Didn’t even mix it with anything, just straight out of the box. Then I took about half a cup of butter – that’s one stick – melted it, and poured it all over the cake mix. I tried to spread it around evenly, but it was kind of a mess, to be honest.
I popped that dish into the oven and baked it for like 45 minutes or so. The top got all golden brown and bubbly, and the whole kitchen smelled amazing.
The Moment of Truth
I let it cool for a bit, then scooped out a big serving with some vanilla ice cream on top. And you know what? It was delicious! The cake mix made a nice, fluffy crust, and the peaches were all gooey and sweet. It was definitely a win, especially for such a simple recipe.
Here’s what I used:
- 1 box (15.25 ounce) Betty Crocker Super Moist Butter Recipe Yellow Cake Mix
- 2 cans (21 ounce each) peach pie filling
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
So, if you’re looking for an easy dessert that tastes like you put in way more effort than you actually did, give this cake mix peach cobbler a try. You might just surprise yourself!
