Dump Cake

Ok, well, since I’m sitting here wondering what we’re going to get started on first this morning, I thought I’d share a very simple and favorite recipe that was given to my grandma the first year I went on harvest with her. This recipe was given to her by a farmer’s wife from Medicine Lodge, KS (Alma Jester) We used to cut for them and stayed right on the farm:

Grease 9 x 13 pan

Pour into the pan:

1 large can crushed pineapple, undrained

1 large can of cherry pie filling

On top of this, sprinkle one box of yellow or white cake mix (dry) and 1/2 cup chopped nuts (my family doesn’t really care for nuts so I leave these off). Thinly slice one stick of margarine/butter over the top of the dry cake mix.

Bake 350 degrees for 1 hour.

I’ve never tried it, but I don’t know why you couldn’t substitute other flavors of pie filling for a different dessert. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. (homemade whipped cream is the best)
