This is AWESOME! I made this twice and baked in 8 inch round aluminumpans and 4 families raved about this. My son hates anything cherry, yet tried "just a bite" then ate the whole thing. This cake is requested for Birthdays, Easter and mothers day. May try using yogurt to replace cream cheese. But haven't yet...perfect as is.

Oddly bland. I used reduced-fat sour cream and pie filling with artificial sugar, so that might've been my bad. Even the glaze -- which added significant calories -- had no taste. I'd keep looking for another coffee cake recipe.

Was certainly a sweet cake, very moist. Everyone who tasted it loved it and said it was a keeper. Would love to do one with peach pie filling.

This was very easy, had everything on hand. I used blueberry pie filling and french vanilla cake mix. I will probably run a knife through the fruit and cake batter next time to better blend the tastes!

This coffeecake turned out just as I expected. It was easy to prepare and baked quickly and turned out moist and bursting with cherries. I added almond extract to the glaze, and it went perfectly with the cake. The teachers at school loved this one and some could not believe that it started with a cake mix.

In selecting this recipe I was looking for fast and easy & with that in mind, 4 stars(it really is more a Betty Crocker thing than home cooking)...when I want REAL coffeecake, I will go to my recipe box of oldies but goodies...

I will definitely make this again. I did find it to be quite cakey, but still good. Next time, I will bake with a bit of sweetened cream cheese on top as well... And maybe a bit more fruit.

This is extremely quick and simple. I did add some almond extract to the batter, which I always do to white cake mix. This gives it a little added flavor.
