What are dump cakes
Dump cakes are cakes that are so easy to make, you literally just dump the ingredients into a pan and then you bake the cake. Dump cakes are typically a combination of a couple of cans of fruit and fruit filling, a boxed cake mix, butter, and often nuts. Dump cakes should be refrigerated after you have finished serving them.
Yummy Dump Cake Recipes
The pumpkin dump cake takes just a little more because we are going to turn the pumpkin layer into a pumpkin pie. So we are going to use pureed pumpkin, pumpkin spice, evaporated milk, sugar, and eggs. Then we are going to layer a box of yellow cake mix, my personal favorite is the Duncan Hines Golden Butter flavor.
I hope you enjoy this easy to make this easy pumpkin dump cake. This recipe always goes over well when I prepare this dessert.

Sylvia Miller says
You mention “pouring the butter over the crushed pecans”, but the only mention of butter is when you say to place the “pieces of butter evenly over the pecans”. Could you clarify?
Stephanie says
There is no pouring the butter over the pecans. I updated the recipe. Thanks.
