Cherry Pineapple Dump Cake

Cherry Pineapple Dump Cake

Ingredients:

  • 1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling
  • 1 can (14 ounces) crushed pineapple
  • 1 box (15.25 ounces) yellow cake mix
  • 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, frozen and chopped

Instructions:

  1. Preparation:
    • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Layer the Fruits:
    • Evenly spread the cherry pie filling and crushed pineapple at the bottom of the prepared cake pan.
  3. Add the Cake Mix:
    • Gently sprinkle the yellow cake mix over the fruit layer. Make sure to spread it out evenly and smooth out any large clumps for a uniform layer.
  4. Top with Butter:
    • Distribute the frozen, chopped butter pieces over the cake mix, ensuring coverage all the way to the edges to create a crisp, golden top as it bakes.
  5. Bake:
    • Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for 45-60 minutes. The cake is done when the top is a deep golden brown and the sides are bubbly.
  6. Cool and Serve:
    • Allow the cake to cool slightly after baking. This dessert can be enjoyed warm or cold. For an extra treat, serve with a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
