Sometimes you just need a little something extra even if it means turning the oven on!
I’ve had a can of crushed pineapple and a box of yellow cake mix in my pantry for far too long. I’ve been craving a dump cake. You see where I’m heading, right?
The beauty of a dump cake is the flexibility of flavors you can play with. With the variety of cake mix flavors in addition to the pie fillings and canned or frozen fruits, you can pretty much create a masterpiece.
A word of warning, however, these things are not low calorie and are very rich. Consider yourself warned!

Notes
If you use canned fruit do not drain the fruit, add the entire can into the baking dish.
You can double the amount of canned fruit if you like.
You can add chopped nuts and or coconut.
Mixing and matching of flavors is an added bonus. Try a chocolate cake mix over cherry pie filling or a yellow cake mix over canned peaches.
