Ingredients
- 2 cans (21 oz each) Apple Pie Filling
- 1 box (approximately 15.25 oz) Spice Cake Mix (dry)
- 1 cup (2 sticks) Butter, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to get it ready for baking.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan thoroughly to prevent sticking and help with easy cleanup.
- Add Apple Pie Filling: Pour both cans of apple pie filling evenly into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out as the base layer.
- Sprinkle Cake Mix: Evenly sprinkle the dry spice cake mix over the apple pie filling. Do not mix; just let it cover the filling completely.
- Top with Butter: Slice the butter into small pieces and distribute them evenly over the cake mix. This will melt and create a rich, crisp topping.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly around the edges.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the dump cake to cool slightly for about 10–15 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally topped with ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
