Making a cake is never easy.
What is a dump cake?
If youre new to dessert dump-culture, like myself, heres a short overview.
The idea is to dump the ingredients and bake.
No extra bowls or utensils, and no mixing.
The fruit, syrup included, is dumped into a buttered casserole dish.
The cake mix rises, absorbs the excess syrup, and browns.
The acidic fruit in every scoop keeps the dessert just safe of being absurdly sweet.
I paired that with peaches, pecans, and French vanilla cake mix.
I poured in the cereal first.
If you need measurements, youll pour in three to four cups of cereal.
I poured the canned sliced peaches in syrup over the cereal, and tried to disperse the peaches evenly.
Then I scattered two handfuls of pecan halves over the peaches.
Allow the cake to cool for about 20 minutes before serving.
Scoop the cake out, making sure to get a little bit of every layer.
Serve as-is or with ice cream.
Butter a large casserole dish, about nine by 13 inches.
Scatter the cereal into the bottom of the buttered dish.
Add the peaches and syrup evenly on top.
Sprinkle the pecans onto the peaches.
Evenly dust the dry cake mix over everything.
Dot the top of the cake mix with pats of butter.
