My mom always made her dump cake with a mixture of cherries and pineapple, but pineapple kind of grosses me out, so I always just looked at it with my nose scrunched in disgust. But recently, I had a version where the pineapple was omitted and I fell in love.
First, simply dump the can of cherries into the bottom of a 9x13 dish and spread it around.
(Now would be the time to add a can of crushed pineapple and stir the two together if your heart desires.)
Next, sprinkle the cake mix evenly over the top of the cherry filling.
Slice the stick of butter into thin slices and place along the top of the cake mix.
Place in the oven at 350 F for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the cake is nice and brown.
It’s normal to have a few dry patches on top that the butter didn’t reach.
Serve with a scoop (or two!) of vanilla ice cream.
