[Music] the whole gang is over at my brother-in-law tim's ranch working calves today it is a huge morning of work and the whole family is pitching in since they're going to be working hard all morning i'm going to take them a big lunch i'm going to start by getting two dump cakes in the oven i love dump cakes they're an old recipe always a crowd pleaser and the ingredients are so easy now i'm going to make two varieties of dump cake the first one is cherry pineapple so that starts with a big can of cherry
pie filling nice and bright red and sweet and then a can of crushed pineapple it's a little bit of an unusual combination but this is a classic dump cake recipe and it is so delicious after it bakes okay i got that all mixed together and spread out evenly so now i grab cake mix another essential component to a dump cake that's what makes it so easy this is a white cake mix and i'll just sprinkle it all over the surface of the fruit you can use absolutely any kind of cake mix you want i've used
the cherry pie filling before with chocolate cake mix oh boy is that good okay now i'll just get it all covered make sure there's no fruit showing and now i'll move forward with the second variety which is even simpler than the first i've got a big can of sliced peaches in syrup and the whole thing goes into the pan it looks like a lot of liquid and it is but the cake pretty much absorbs it all now for the cake mix for this one i'm using yellow cake mix there's absolutely no rhyme or reason to
what kind of cake mix you use with the fruit it's just a matter of what you have in your pantry it's pretty much six and one half dozen of the other it still winds up delicious all right i'll make sure it's totally covered okay now i'll just spread the cake mix around now the thing that makes all of this make sense i cut three sticks of cold butter into pieces and i just lay the pieces of butter all over the surface of the cake mix this is an incredibly decadent cake i don't know if you've
noticed that by now there is nothing redeeming about it the name is hilarious the ingredients are simple and i'm proud every time i make one the great thing about dump cakes is they are so rich that a little goes a long way and since i'm feeding a crowd today that's exactly what i'm looking for okay got all the butter on i think that's probably enough butter so i'll just get these in the oven they need to bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes to an hour until they're nice and hot and bubbly and golden
