BOX-MIX RHUBARB DUMP CAKE



Box-Mix Rhubarb Dump Cake image

This recipe is wonderful. Very fast and easy to mix up can also use frozen rhubarb. Serve it nice and warm with some ice-cream or cool whip. The marshmallows give the cake a nice golden brown. Preparation time does not include time to clean and dice rhubarb. I put 12 for serving size according to the box, but I am sure you can get more out of a 9x13 inch pan. The recipe is sweet so a smaller piece may be better. Enjoy!

RHUBARB DUMP CAKE



Rhubarb Dump Cake image

A "delicious" dump cake! Main ingredients are: rhubarb, a yellow cake mix, & either raspberry or strawberry gelatin.

Provided by Cindi M Bauer

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 -5 cups diced rhubarb
3/4 cup sugar
1 (3 ounce) package raspberry gelatin powder or 1 (3 ounce) package strawberry gelatin
1 (18 1/2 ounce) box yellow cake mix (with pudding in the mix)
1/2 cup butter
1 cup water
vanilla ice cream or cool whip dessert topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line the bottom of an ungreased 13x9x2-inch baking pan with the rhubarb.
  • Sprinkle sugar over the rhubarb.
  • Sprinkle dry raspberry gelatin, ( or strawberry gelatin ) which ever you prefer; over the sugar.
  • Next, sprinkle the cake mix over the gelatin.
  • Melt butter; pour over the cake mix.
  • Pour the 1 cup of water over cake mix.
  • Bake for 45 minutes.
  • Cool completely; then chill in refrigerator.
  • When ready to serve, invert onto plate.
  • Top with either vanilla ice cream or Cool Whip.
  • Serves 12 to 16.
  • Note: If using frozen rhubarb, reduce the amount of water to 1/2 cup.
  • This cake was baked in a gas oven.
  • If baking in an electric oven, you may need to increase baking time; depending upon oven and altitude.
  • Chef sheerkerry baked hers in an electric oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect texture for your dump cake, ensure the rhubarb is cut into small pieces so that it cooks evenly throughout the cake.
  • If your rhubarb is particularly tart, consider adding an extra ¼ cup of sugar to the filling mixture for a sweeter taste.
  • For a delightful crunchy topping, use a mixture of brown sugar, flour, and oats. You can also add chopped nuts or shredded coconut for an extra layer of flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter; a few gentle stirs will suffice to combine the ingredients. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • To prevent a soggy bottom, avoid pouring the batter directly onto the rhubarb. Instead, sprinkle the topping mixture over the rhubarb first, then pour the batter on top.
  • For a golden-brown crust, place the dump cake on the middle rack of your oven. If the top starts to brown too quickly, cover it with a piece of aluminum foil.

Conclusion:

Box mix rhubarb dump cake is a delightful and effortless dessert that combines the flavors of sweet rhubarb and a crispy topping. With its simple preparation and delicious taste, this cake is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a beginner in the kitchen, this recipe is sure to impress. So gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and let's embark on a culinary journey to create a delightful treat that will satisfy your sweet cravings.
