Cherry Pineapple Dump Cake is a fruity, flavor-bursting, easy cake recipe that you everyone will love! Juicy, bubbling cherries are mixed with sweet and tangy pineapple chunks and baked perfectly into the cake mix topping until you have a beautiful, fruit filled cake ready to eat right out of the pan.

Ingredients
 

  • 20 ounces crushed pineapple ((canned))
  • 21 ounces cherry pie filling ((canned))
  • 1 standard size box yellow cake mix (pineapple or white can also be used)
  • 12 tablespoons butter (cut into 24 slices)
  • chopped pecans for topping if desired (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Pour the crushed pineapple, along with the juice, into the pan. Distribute evenly.
  • Pour the cherry pie filling over the crushed pineapples, distributing evenly.
  • Sprinkle the dry cake mix over the pineapples and cherries.
  • Arrange butter slices over the cake mix, trying to cover as much of the cake mix as you possibly can.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the top is turning golden brown.
  • Serve warm, topped with ice cream if desire.

Notes

Storage - Allow the dump cake to cool completely before storing. Cover the baking dish with a lid or saran wrap tightly, then store at room temperature for the first day. Store the remaining cake in the fridge for 2-3 days after that.
Reheating - To reheat, microwave each serving, or pop the cake back in the oven at 350°F, and reheat until warmed through, or for about 15-20 minutes.
