Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 box cake mix
20 ounces crushed pineapple in syrup -- undrained
1 can cherry pie filling
1 cup pecans -- chopped
1/2 cup margarine

* Use a standard sized cake mix, but do not use one with pudding in the mix.
Some good choices are German chocolate or plain chocolate mix. Use a 13 x 9 x
2-inch pan -- important for even baking. Do not grease pan.

1. Pour the undrained pineapple in pan and spread evenly. Layer the
pie filling fairly evenly over pineapple. Sprinkle the dry cake mix over
and pat down with fingertips VERY LIGHTLY. Sprinkle the chopped pecans
over mix and dot with the margarine cut into tiny pieces.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until set
when pressed lightly with fingers. Serve warm or cold.

NOTES : What could be easier than using a cake mix and canned pie filling for
this surprisingly tasty dessert?
