🍰 Feed Me: Mixed Berry Dump Cake

Via Giphy

Dump cake: It sounds unappetizing. But it is not! Also, any idiot can make it, hence: Me doing it!

What is dump cake? Essentially fruit (usually frozen or canned/pie filling), dry cake mix, some butter and if you like, optional oats, walnuts, etc. I adapted this recipe.

What You'll Need

Two 12-ounce bags of mixed frozen fruit (or another of your preference) *or* two cans of cherry/apple/strawberry/blackberry/etc. pie filling;

1 box of white or vanilla/French vanilla cake mix;

1 stick of butter (melted), 1-1/2 if you use the optional ingredients;

1/2 cup oats (optional);

1/2 cup walnuts (optional).

What You'll Do

Heat the oven to 350.

In a mixer, combine the cake mix, butter and optional ingredients. Empty the fruit into a 9" x 13" baking dish (if using frozen fruit, do not defrost beforehand), and then sprinkle the mixed ingredients on top.

Bake for 55-60 minutes.

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

I didn't say it was pretty! It is called a 'dump cake' after all.
