NOTES : You can use any cake mix and pie filling combination that sounds good...white cake and huckleberry pie filling, spice cake and apple pie filling, lemon cake and lemon filling, etc.
You can also use white chocolate chips in the frosting, BUT... wait until the sugar mixture is almost cool before stirring in chips. White chocolate will seize very easily.
