I have never heard of dump cake...google has many recipes. all with different fruit.

 

[MousePotatoKnits]

I have used apple once and cherries another time. (the pie filling).

 

[BARBIE-s]

!. Dump large can crushed pineapple (in it's own juice) into 8 &1/2 X 11 cake pan
2. Dump large can of cherry pie filling on top of the pineapple
3. Dump evenly over top of fruits a yellow box cake mix (two layer)
4. In thin slices, place butter pats over top of entire cake, one at a time (usually takes 2 sticks of butter-which should be room temperature, easier to slice thinly)

Bake at approx. 375 degrees for approx. 35-45 min. or until top of cake is light golden brown, can put chopped pecans, walnuts or almonds over top of cake, smathering, in the last 10 min. of baking.

Can be served by large spoon while warm, or can be served room temperature, can add scoop of vanilla ice cream to warm cake. Leftover-if any- should be refrigerated and warmed at time of serving.

It will make your house smell like CHRISTMAS..........because of the cherry pie filling

What is a yellow box cake mix - looking for an equivalent for UK. Sounds good!

EASY PEACH DELIGHT
1 large can sliced peaches (undrained)
1 pkg yellow cake mix
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 stick margarine

Pour peaches with syrup in a 9x12 pan. Sprinkle dry cake mix on top. Top with nuts. Slice margarine over nuts. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes. Cool. Top each serving with a dollop of Cool Whip.

We really don't like it. Too sweet and artificial tasting. We do love crumbles and cobblers though.

Cherry pie filling, chocolate fudge cake mix.

This website has some UK equivalents for various US ingredients.

A box of your favorite cake mix and a can of fruit cocktail. Juice and all. Mix and bake according to time on cake box . I mostly use yellow cake mix. Yummy with or without frosting.

This is a good recipe and everyone enjoys it but it is pretty sweet:
1 large can crushed pineapple with juice
1 can blueberry pie filling
1 box white cake mix
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 stick butter (melted)
"Dump" pineapple in 9x12 baking dish
Drop blueberry pie filling by spoonfuls over the pineapple
Sprinkle white cake mix over the top
Sprinkle walnuts
Drizzle the melted butter over all
Bake in 350 degree oven for approximately 1 hour or until golden brown

Is there a recipe that uses fresh or frozen fruit and make your own cake mix?

 

[Maureen Therese]

I get turned off as soon as I see 'packet cake mix'. Yuk.

I have made this many, many times for church. No leftovers. Sometimes I used almonds and sometimes walnuts. Excellent either way. For a change I used cherry pie filling and a chocolate cake mix instead of yellow.

It really is good.

Me too. And tins of this and that! All too sweet for my taste.
How about a simple homemade sponge cake with fresh fruit and cream?

Tin fruit it's own juice not syrup isn't so sweet.
