I made this cherry and pineapple dump cake for Denton’s birthday a few weeks ago and we ate the entire thing in two days. It is a keeper!
Here’s how I make it:
Mix a can of cherry pie filling with a can of crushed pineapple together in a baking pan.
As you can see, I couldn’t find my can of crushed pineapple, so I diced up some pineapple rings I had instead. It worked just fine! Use what you have people.
Next sprinkle an entire box of cake mix over the top of the fruit mixture…..I used Duncan Hines Classic Yellow cake mix, but I’ve also used others, just use what you have and have a taste for!
Cut up an entire stick of butter and place all over the top of the cake mix……
And bake. It’s so, so good! And easy too.
Cherry pineapple dump cake. They are the best! Let me know what you think.
