- 1 large can of crushed pineapple
- 1 can of cherry pie filling
- 1 can of yellow cake mix or white cake mix
- 2 sticks butter
- A can of flaked coconut
- For a pineapple dump cake recipe coupled with cherries, place crushed pineapple into the pan.
- Don't discard the juice, pour it along with the crushed pineapple.
- Spread it evenly, continuing with the same activity of spreading with the cherry pie filling over the pineapple.
- Now is the time to pour the cake mix (yellow or white, your choice!) over the cherries.
- You will notice that the cake mix has a granular texture. Well, if you want a crusty and creamy morsel then don't mash it and make it even and smooth. Let it be the way it is.
- To give the cake a coarse flavoring, you could sprinkle some dry coconut powder. Ensure that the coconut is not finely powdered. Sprinkling coconut powder that has tiny pieces of coconut intact, will add a different twang to the cake all together.
- Garnish it with some cashews to make the cake look and feel rich.
- Melt butter in a pan and pour it all over the cake.
- Place it in the oven at 320 degrees and see the cake turn crusty from the outside and soft and melt-y inside.
- You could serve it whipped cream. Viola! a cherry dump cake with coconut is ready for you.
