In addition to this being an easy cake to make, another great things is that you only need a few ingredients. And best of all, the ingredients you need are probably in your home right now! With a box of cake mix, 1.5 sticks of butter, and 2 cans of pineapples you are ready to get started.

Easy to Make Dump Cake

I mentioned that this is an easy cake to make, but what exactly does that mean? You are probably wondering if you need some baking knowledge or if anyone can really make this with ease. You truly don’t need to be a professional baker. Anyone can make this cake and look like a baking superstar!

My kids always like to “help” me make things. And, reluctantly, I will allow them to help from time to time. Honestly, making a pineapple dump cake is a cake that kids can help with and it won’t be a complete nightmare for you. Seriously!

Making The Dump Cake

Once you have your ingredients in front of you, you will can pull this cake together in 6 or 7 minutes. Next, you will need to melt the butter and distribute it evenly on the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan. Then, you just have to layer the ingredients; starting with the pineapple juice, then the pineapples, next the cake mix, and then the cubed butter at the very top. Finally, just pop the pan in the oven and wait approximately 50 minutes before it will be done. While the cake is baking, you will LOVE that sweet smell coming from your oven.

Go all out and top the cake with either ice cream, homemade whipped cream, or both!
