Dump Cake (cherry-pineapple)

This recipe is so easy, a 4 and 6 year old can make it! I am not typically a pineapple lover..but I have to say this recipe is deeeeeelicious! It is one of “those” recipes that if left on the counter, covered, you get a fork..lift the foil… and take a bite before you leave the kitchen…over and over….agh! This is a keeper!

5 Ingredients. 1 box yellow cake mix, 1 21 oz can cherry pie filling, 1 15 oz can crushed pineapple, 8 oz chopped walnuts, 1/2 cup butter. I’m serious…that’s it.

 

Pour the cherries and the pineapple in a pan-( I used a throwaway pan because I was cooking for a family on this night.)

 

 

Stir together

 

“Dump” dry cake mix over top

 

 

Stir until just combined (you may also leave it just like this-whatever you prefer) 

 

 

 

 

This is what it looks like just combined

 

Add nuts to top

 

 

Ladle on the butta 

 

 

Bake for 35-40 mins in a 350 oven

  1. Guuuurrrrrrlllll! You are speaking my language with such a SUPER easy recipe. ..confession…I can multi-task as a teacher and Momma, but baking and cooking need my FULL attention. However, delegating is even better! I think I will pass this one on to the 13 yr. old son and 6 yr. old daughter…that = one HAPPY MOMMA!! LOL

  5. Made this last night for dinner….wonderful! Easy to make and it was a big hit! Thank you for all the wonderful recipes!

  6. Dump cake is just that… everything gets dumped in. No stirring…no mixing, just dump.
    The most work is carefully making sure to dump the dry cake mixture all across the top of the pineapples and cherries. But dump cake is definitely made to be dumped, not mixed together like that…

    • Mercy- I have actually tried it just “dumped” and I don’t like how the cake doesn’t fully get moist. It actually burns a little and is powdery. Have you tried it that way?

  7. It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d most certainly donate to this superb blog!
