Made 4 of these for the weekly free lunch at church. To help with prep (at home), I pulsed each cake mix with frozen butter in the food processor until it was evenly crumbled, then placed the mix in plastic bags to transport to the church kitchen. Since our baking plans are a bit larger than 9x13, I used 3 cans of fruit filling per pan. Worked like a dream and the guests loved it!

Works great with sugar-free cake mix too for someone wanting to lower the sugar content.

I've made this many times using different variations of fruits, cake mixes, etc. Apples or peaches with spice cake always gets compliments. I usually use 1 & 1/2 sticks of butter.

Been using this recipe since I was a teen. Always a big hit!
Since I'm older now, (and my husband & I watching calories), I have since used Del Monte Harvest Spice can peaches, (or plain sliced,can peaches, too), instead of pie filling. I also skip the nuts, and use Cool Whip Light Whipped Cream. It cuts the "reeeaaally sweet" taste, and I think, even tastes better! Try it, you'll like it!

Instead of a yellow cake mix, used a red velvet because it's what I had on hand. SO good!

Instead of cherry pie filling I used caramel apple pie filling with the pineapple. It taste great.

Joe Lesins (Missouri) says:

I melt the butter and mix it with the cake mix prior to laying it on top of the fruit mix. What comes out is a cake with an uneven texture. It looks very inviting, much better than a flat plain surface.

I lost my 'original' recipe for Dump cake. I have experienced different versions over the years, but none so good as the original. I am elated! The oven is heating and I am ready to dump!!

I'm so glad I found this recipe! When I was a girl we used to make this in a dutch oven over the campfire at Girl Scout camp. Loved it then, love it now!

You are not limited to the fruit you can use, I have used peaches and pears and substituted shredded coconut for nuts.

Mary Lou (Newfoundland) says:

I use apple pie filling instead of cherry, and both pecans and coconut. My recipe calls for 1 cup of melted margarine over top. Delicious!

Shelly (Mississippi) says:

This has been one of my favs for years sense the first time my Mamma made it. My favorite part is the crust, I love picking at it. I would get in trouble every time. I wonder is there a way i could just make the crust yummmmmmy. I also mix my pineapples and cherry.
