Simply start by pouring a can of Cherry Pie Filling into a slow cooker. I added a half brick of cream cheese to the cherry pie filling by dropping dollops into the cherry filling. Push the cream cheese down into the filling a bit with a spoon or your finger. I won’t tell.
I sprinkled a half box of chocolate cake mix evenly over the cherry filling and cream cheese. German chocolate cake mix is my first choice, but any chocolate cake mix will work. Finally, I layered pats of butter over the cake mix. I used a half of a stick of butter or 4 tablespoons.
Next, I put the lid onto the slow cooker. Chocolate Cherry Cobbler cooks in the slow cooker on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours. You should know your own appliance. Some slow cookers will need much less time while others will need much more time.

How many people would this serve? I’m wanting to simply use who brick and box, assuming the cook time would be about the same??
Naturally, that would depend on serving size. I’m assuming that “who brick and box” means two cans of filling, whole box of cream cheese, and a whole box of cake mix. If you are in fact doubling the recipe, I would say that it should serve 6-8 people. However, I usually double this recipe to serve the 4 of us because my teen sons will wipe it out. I don’t recommend doubling only the cream cheese and cake mix without doubling everything else, but then, I’m not in your kitchen. I would love to hear what you ultimately decide to do and how it comes out!
Yes, I’m meaning doubling the whole recipe. When you do so, is the cook time the same or do you alter it?
In my appliances, it is usually the same cook time.
