Easy Chocolate Cherry Dump Cake
Ingredients:
- 2 cans (20 ounces each) cherry pie filling (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 box chocolate cake mix (Duncan Hines recommended)
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
Instructions:
- Prep:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with some of the melted butter.
- Layer the Filling:
- Spread the cherry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish.
- Add Cake Mix:
- Evenly sprinkle the dry chocolate cake mix over the cherry pie filling. Gently tap or shake the baking dish to ensure an even layer of cake mix.
- Top with Butter:
- Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the cake mix layer. It’s fine if there are a few dry spots; the butter will spread as it bakes.
- Bake:
- Place the dish in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, until the edges are bubbly and the top is set and slightly crispy.
- Serve:
- Enjoy the dump cake warm, paired perfectly with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
This Chocolate Cherry Dump Cake is the epitome of easy and delicious desserts, perfect for any occasion that calls for a sweet, fruity, and chocolatey treat.
