Tasty Tips
Dump cake is a delicious baked fruit dessert made from 3 ingredients: Sliced canned fruit, cake mix, and topped with butter. Dump cake is similar to a cobbler, except that it uses cake mix instead of a biscuit or pastry topping that a cobbler uses.
You DO NOT STIR a dump cake. First layer is the fruit. Second layer is the cake mix. Third layer is butter on top. A lot of butter. The butter will soak into the cake mix layer underneath it and create a delicious, browned crust on top of the fruit when baked.
Dump cake is done when the fruit is bubbly on the edges and the cake is baked through.
Variations
Variation: - Try swapping out the Sliced Peaches for a can of Cherries and a can of Crushed Pineapple. Twice the fruit and oh so delicious!
