Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Spread the fresh or frozen blackberries evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish.
Sprinkle the granulated sugar over the blackberries. If you like, sprinkle the cinnamon evenly over the sugar for added flavor.
Pour the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the blackberry mixture, making sure to cover all the fruit completely.
Drizzle the water evenly over the cake mix to help it moisten during baking.
Slice the unsalted butter into thin pats and evenly distribute them across the top of the cake mix layer.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the blackberries are bubbling.
Remove the dump cake from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
