Categories     Cakes

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 can(s) cherry pie filling
1 can(s) crushshed pineapple
1 pkg yellow cake mix
2 stick butter, cut into patties
1 can(s) coconut
8 oz pecans, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325. DO NOT MIX ANYTHING!
  • 2. Place ingredients into pan in order listed: pie filling, pineapple, cake mix placed even over filling, butter, coconut and pecans.
  • 3. Bake for 1 hour. Keep refrigerated. You could substitute other pie fillings like apple, peach or blueberry.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, plump cherries: Fresh cherries are best for this recipe, but frozen cherries can also be used. If using frozen cherries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Use unsweetened coconut flakes: Sweetened coconut flakes will make the cake too sweet. If you only have sweetened coconut flakes, reduce the amount of sugar in the cake by 1/4 cup.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Pour the batter over the cherries and spread it evenly: This will help to ensure that the cherries are evenly distributed throughout the cake.
  • Bake the cake at 350 degrees F for 45-50 minutes: The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving: This will help the cake to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

This coconut cherry dump cake is an easy and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with simple ingredients and can be prepared in just a few minutes. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a sweet and tangy filling. The coconut and cherry flavors complement each other perfectly, and the cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
