Title: Need a recipe
Post by: Judy Harder on December 19, 2007, 10:22:08 PM
I thought I had the recipe for a Dump Cake.........I have part of it.

Does any of you have it. I know what goes into it.....like a cake mix and canned fruit pie filling
but not the amount of anything, it is a yummy cake and I think it would travel well and keep for a day or so
without worrying about it spoiling.

Help.
thanks Hugs to you.  aoyp.............and God bless

1 1/2 sticks butter, sliced

Grease 9"x13" pan.
Dump all ingredients in layers, starting with pie filling and ending with butter pats.
Pats should be divided evenly on top.

Let cool and refrigerate.
Serves 10 to 12.


A variation is this one..

Spread around to combine fruit just a little.
Sprinkle dry cake mix evenly over the fruit.
Sprinkle nuts and coconut over cake mix.
Drizzle butter evenly over nuts and coconut.

Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until coconut looks toasty.
Let cool for 15 minutes or so. Serve with or without Ice Cream.

Wow.. this looks good.  I made this with blueberries and pineapple, but I think I'll try the cherries the next time.  Thanks Teresa!

Teresa,

the one I have uses apple pie filling, is that a good
choice.
This does sound like the one that I had, but wonder what other kinds of
fruit you all use.

thanks, I will be making this..........the first bite of this cake, I thought I had
died and gone to heaven it was that good........and I need to make it when I
am going somewhere, and sharing with others......

I am afraid I could/would eat the whole blame thing and not stop till it was gone.
Temptation stay away from me!!!!!

Hugs and God bless

Teresa's "Apple Dump Cake" with apples and pineapple is the one we use.  It is so good!  We think it's really better, though, when it is still warm from coming out of the oven!

And top it with whipped cream when you are serving it warm!

I had never heard of dump cake before, and I'm curious -- when did this kind of cake become popular?  Was it a 50s or 60s invention, maybe?  Or maybe it is recent and just passed me by.  I looked it up on the web, and there are lots of recipes for it, but no one says when it got started.  It reminds me a little of "wacky" cake in terms of how everything is dumped in one pan.

I think it's been around for a long time, and it probably started out as a "wacky cake," because, it sort of is!  You do have to wonder if discovering how easy it is to make was an accident, or if someone really started experimenting, and it just really turned out good!

I found a recipe (for whacky cake, not rat) in a 1961 cook book so it goes back at least that far.
