In a separate bowl, mix the cake mix and ingredients. Pour this batter over the cherry filling in the oven,bake about 30-40 minutes at 350 degrees.Test the cake for doneness with a straw or toothpick.

When the cake is done, remove from the oven, and let the oven cool for about 10 to 30 minutes. Using a large cutting board or a piece of card-board,covered with waxed paper or parchment paper, hold the board on top of the oven and turn the oven upside down quickly. This will allow the cake to fall on the board and the cherry filling will be on the top.
