DUMP CAKE BONANZA!!

               TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND FANS! 
                      I just had a STELLAR idea... 

                    Let's have a "DUMP CAKE" BONANZA! 
 

What on earth is DUMP CAKE, you ask. Well... a "dump cake" is the easiest kind of cake you can make because all you do is "dump" stuff in - you don't mix or measure or add water or do anything, really - - just dump in the ingredients and then bake. The miracle of it is that it turns out incredibly DELICIOUS!
 
IF YOU HAVE A SPECIAL DUMP CAKE RECIPE,  POST IT HERE! AFTER EVERYBODY HAS POSTED THEIR FAVES... I'LL PUBLISH ALL THE RECIPES IN A SPECIAL "DUMP CAKE" SECTION ON MY WEBSITE. FUN! :>
 

TO MAKE A DUMP CAKE. . .  Get out a rectangular baking dish and then "dump" ingredients in - one on top of another. DO NOT MIX.  Then bake the whole thing @ 350 for about an hour and all of a sudden,  VOY-OLA!!  You have this super yummy, inexpensive, and VERY EASY dessert that everybody gobbles up in no time flat.
 

This is my PERSONAL FAVORITE dump cake recipe. . .  
 
EASY CHOCOLATE CHERRY DUMP CAKE 
 
Our friends Tim and Connie brought this over one Saturday night and it was just out of this world.  It's so rich, and the cherries offset the richness a bit. SO GOOD!

Here's what you do....

- In a rectangular baking dish pour 1 can GOOD-QUALITY
   cherry pie filling. Spread evenly.
- On top of that pour 1 GOOD-QUALITY chocolate cake mix (dry).
   Spread evenly again, but DO NOT MIX.

- On top of that sprinkle a bunch of chopped pecans (about a cup or
   more, depending on how cruncy you like it).
- On top of that put 1 cube (one stick) of butter, chopped into
  chunks.  Distribute the chunks evenly.
                      Bake 350 about an hour.
Serve warm w/ whip cream, cool whip or ice cream.  Mmmm!!! YUM!

          EEEASY! CHEAPPP!! A REAL CROWD PLEASER!
           (sounds like a girl I knew in college....) hahaha!! :>
 
 
HERE'S ANOTHER DUMP CAKE RECIPE. . .
This was submitted by my good friend Carla Schroeder. We had this at their home and man, oh man... it's definitely a crowd-pleaser too!   
 

Carla Schroeder writes. . .   
       WHITE DUMP CAKE w CHERRIES AND PINEAPPLE
This is so delicious!  You follow the exact same recipe as your chocolate dump cake, Patti, except you use white or yellow cake mix instead of chocolate.  Then - in addition to the cherry pie filling, you add one can of pineapple chunks. 
 
So you end up with a white cake dessert with cherries and pineapple in it!  It is moist and DELICIOUS!  The rest is the same as your recipe. Serve warm with whip cream, cool whip or ice cream just like yours. Oh boy. As you say... "be still my heart".
 
To recap - here's the exact recipe for Carla's version . . .
-  In a rectangular baking dish pour 1 can GOOD-QUALITY
   cherry pie filling AND 1 16-oz can pineapple chunks. 
   Mix fruit together and spread evenly.
-  On top of that pour 1 GOOD-QUALITY white or yellow cake mix
   (dry).  Spread evenly again, but DO NOT MIX.

- On top of that sprinkle a bunch of chopped pecans (about a cup
   or more, depending on how cruncy you like it).
- On top of that put 1 cube (one stick) of butter, chopped into
   chunks. Distribute the chunks evenly across the top.
Bake 350 about an hour.
Serve warm w/ whip cream, cool whip or ice cream. Mmmm!!! YUM!
