How to make a Dump Cake
Making this easy dessert couldn’t be simpler: layer canned fruit in a casserole dish, sprinkle boxed cake mix on top, and finish with softened butter.
Bake until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool and serve with fresh whipped cream or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream..

Christmas Dump Cakes
Christmas is usually filled with rich desserts, cookies, and old family recipes that have been passed down for years. And while those traditional treats are special, sometimes you just want something a little easier.
That’s where a Christmas-inspired dump cake comes in! You can mix in seasonal flavors like cranberry, raspberry, or peppermint and add fun extras like marshmallows, caramel, or white chocolate chips.
Top it with festive sprinkles or a sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg, and you’ve got a dessert that feels merry without the stress.
It’s the kind of easy, delicious treat that everyone will love—and you won’t be stuck in the kitchen all day.
