Preheat the oven to 350° F. Spray a 9x13-inch (2.5 quart) baking dish with nonstick spray.
Add 1 1/2 cans of cherry pie filling to the bottom of the baking dish. Reserve the other half of the filling for later in the recipe.
Sprinkle the 15.25 ounce box yellow cake mixevenly over the top of the pie filling
Gently pour 2 cups 7-up lemon lime soda over the top of the cake mix.
Use the back of a spoon to gently incorporate the cake mix and 7-up until it is no longer bubbly. You aren’t fully mixing it. Just swirl the back of the spoon around to make sure all of the cake mix is covered with the 7Up.
Dollop the remaining cherry pie filling on top.
Bake on the middle rack for about 60 minutes or until golden brown. After 45 minutes, if the top is getting too brown, cover with aluminum foil.NOTE: Oven times can vary so please go by doneness and not strictly by time.
Allow the cake to cool so the cobbler sets completely. If you cut into it while it is hot, it will be very liquidy. As it cools, it sets up. This can take at least 2 hours.
