Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 42 ounces Cherry pie filling
- 20 ounces Crushed pineapple (with juice)
- 15.25 ounces Devil's food cake mix
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray or butter.
Spread the cherry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Add the crushed pineapple on top of the cherry pie filling, spreading it evenly, including the juice.
Sprinkle the dry devil's food cake mix evenly over the fruit layers. Do not mix.
Slice the unsalted butter into thin pieces and lay them evenly over the top of the cake mix to cover as much of the surface as possible.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top of the butter. If using chopped pecans, sprinkle them over the chocolate chips as well.
Bake the dump cake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and slightly crisp.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for at least 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
