This cake was very easy to make and delicious. I did make a few changes by decreasing the sugar to 2T and adding 1T fresh lemon juice. As another review suggested, I did use a pastry cutter with the cake mix/butter and that worked great.

AWESOME! This was sooo easy and delicious! I only cooked it for 30 minutes and even though there were spots where the butter never touched the cake mix, it still tasted good and didn't taste dried out. The only thing I'll do different next time is add less sugar, maybe a 1/3 cup. It was a bit to sweet.

This is the easiest dessert in the world. Always gets great reviews. I do the cake part differently. In a seperate bowl cut one stick of butter into the cake mix with pastry cutter until crubmly. Then sprinkle this mix over the fruit. Never a clumping or dry problem. Can also sub for fruit: one large can of pie filling (blueberry or cherry are our favs) mixed with one large undrained can crushed pineapple. DO NOT make in bundt pan as one person tried!!!

I really enjoyed making this for a dinner party and everyone there enjoyed it. This is beyond simple and takes less than 10 minutes to prep. When I made it, I went with others' suggestions to slice the butter rather than melt and pour it. I would definitely recommend this to anyone--especially someone with little experience baking or who's just short on time. My only suggestions for this recipe are to cut the sugar or leave it out completely as cake mixes already have sugar in it. I understand the consistency of the blueberry juice, once cooked, will be runny, but an easier, "healthier" way to combat this, is to just use honey or stevia. Also, I doubled the amount of cinnamon and also added nutmeg. Served with lemon sorbet--great pairing! Great recipe!

i tried to make this a little less bad for us by using angel food cake mix, i can't believe it's not butter, and half splenda/half sugar (1/4c each). it was really good but the mixing the berries w/sugar first is REALLY not necessary as there is so much sugar in the cake mix. it's really cobbler-y and really good. i didn't have ice cream so put cool whip on top. good with a big glass of milk!

I adore this recipe! I have made it a hundred times and changed up the liquid on top and the fruit. To cut back on calories I use 1/2 cup of buttermilk instead of butter- I just tip the pan a few times to cover all the cake mix. I also add a sprinkle of sugar and cinnamon to the top before baking. If any spots aren't wet after tipping- just drop a pat of butter or a little more buttermilk or skim milk. This recipe equally as yummy with different berries or apples. I have had perfect results with buttermilk, half or half or skim milk in place of the butter

I made this to serve with lunch after church on Sunday. I also used a full cup of melted butter like others suggested. It was a huge hit!! This was so easy to make. I'll definitely make it again. Thanks.

We enjoy this recipe! I've made it twice using some of the suggestions from other reviews. I used 1/2 the suggested amount of sugar. It is still very sweet & next time I will cut back further. I grated the butter & spread it on top of the cake mix. Just watch for dry spots during baking and put a little pat of butter on them if there are any. I served this with whipped cream. Very yummy!

This is my favorite dessert in the world! But I like mine better! I have always used a lemon cake mix and use 1 1/2 sticks of butter patties and put on top. The blueberries should be cooked first on low heat with the sugar and cinniman. I always add pecan halves on top and then cook. Yummy

Way too sweet! The cake topping tasted raw and gritty. My three year old wouldn't even eat it. We ended up throwing the leftovers away.

Very. very tastey. Here are the changes that I made with the recipe...I didn't have a yellow cake mix so I used a lemon cake mix. Many blueberry recipes include lemon juice, so I figured this would be alright. It tasted fabulous! I can't imagine it without the lemon cake mix. Also, several of the reviews on this recipe complained about the topping so instead of melting the butter, I used my food processor and cut cold butter into the mix. That way it would be evenly distributed. Instead of a 9x13 pan, I used 2 glass pie plates and divided the ingredients equally.

This is really good with some minor adjustments. I followed some others' advice and melted 1/2 the butter. I used 1/2 the cake mix and stirred it with the berries first, then drizzled the melted butter. I then "dumped" the other 1/2 cake mix on top, and sliced pats of butter covering the top. It took closer to 45 or 50 minutes to bake though. This got gobbled up quick! Blueberry, strawberry, and raspberry (all fresh) went well together.
