Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 42 oz cherry pie filling
- 20 oz crushed pineapple (with juice)
- 15.25 oz devil's food cake mix
- 1 cup salted butter
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- whipped cream or vanilla ice cream (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with non-stick spray or butter.
Spread the cherry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Pour the crushed pineapple (with its juice) on top of the cherry pie filling. Spread it out to create an even layer.
Sprinkle the devil's food cake mix evenly over the fruit layers. Do not stir.
Cut the salted butter into thin slices and evenly distribute them across the top of the cake mix, ensuring most of the surface is covered.
Sprinkle the semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the butter and cake mix.
If desired, add chopped pecans or walnuts for extra texture and flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and slightly crisp.
Allow the dump cake to cool for at least 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat.
