CHERRY DUMP CAKE

I’ve been so busy doing report cards this week. Then for my class, I’m planning a  fun Halloween Party on Monday. The rest of the week I’ll be  having kids on candy highs for a few days and then Parent Teacher conferences on Wednesday and Thursday. EEK! Fun week ahead! Anyhoo…..

My finished cherry dump cake Cherry Crisp

I can’t face cooking today. So My nice hubs went and got takeout at Goodwood Barbeque in Draper, my favorite BBQ place.

EasyIngredients for Cherry Crisp…..minus the crushed pineapple..

And I’m making a cherry dump cake to go with it.  It is soooooo easy but yummy.

Just use a can of cherries for the Cherry Dump Cake

Spray the pan, line with the canned cherries for Cherry Crisp….

Then add the pineapple and pecans…just dump them in!

Dump the cake mix on top and dot with butter pieces….THAT’S IT!

Here is the recipe.

CHERRY DUMP CAKE

1 can cherry pie filling
1 can crushed pineapple, including juice
1 butter cake mix
1 stick butter
chopped walnuts or pecans

Preheat oven to 350, Spray 9 x 13 pan with Pam. spread cherry pie filling, top with crushed pineapple. Sprinkle cake mix on top and dot with sliced butter and nuts. Bake for 45 min. to an hour.

Cherry Dump Cake (kind of a cherry crisp) all finished and half eaten!!

And like some desserts, it is actually better the next day when the crispiness has hardened a little and isn’t soft and mushy. Here it is after we ate half of it. Yum.

John’s brisket….

My ribs….Thanks GOODWOOD BARBEQUE!

And here is my Goodwood Barbeque take-out on my new square, white dinner plates from TARGET. My husband loves the brisket, I love the ribs…the potato salad is pretty great there too. Now if only Goodwood was next door and not all the way in DRAPER!  Thanks hubs. You rock!
