Camping Indoors

Dump Cake

Camp Fire

This summer I was given the opportunity to work for a Girl Scout Camp called Camp Pisgah! It was a wonderful experience and I really enjoyed working there and I miss it at times.

Every Wednesday we would cookout with the girls and I looked forward to building fires and making our meals over the fire… it’s not that easy making a fire when rained earlier that day.

Anyways my favorite thing to make, over the fire, was dessert and I always tried my hardest to convince a group of girls each week to make Dump Cake. Dump Cake was my favorite it was so good!

So one day I thought to myself if I can make dump cake over a fire I’m pretty sure I can make it in the microwave!

This recipe is meant to be made for one individual

You’ll need:

• A Sweet Tooth
• A deep medium Microwavable bowl
• Fork

Ingredients:

• ¾ cups Pie Filling
• ½ cup of Boxed Cake Mix
• 1 ½ Stick of Butter

Cake and Pie Filling Ideas:

•  Yellow Cake: Apple, Cherry, Strawberry, or Blueberry pie filling 
• Chocolate Cake: Cherry, Strawberry, or Raspberry pie filling

Step 1: Take your bowl and use 1/2 a stick of butter and butter the bowl very well, to make sure you avoid things from sticking.

Step 2: Pour the pie filling into the bowl and then slice half a stick of butter up and place it on top of your choice of pie filling.

Step 3: Then pour cake mix evenly on top of the pie filling and butter. DO NOT MIX!

Step 4: Next you’re going to slice the rest of the butter up and place the slices evenly along the cake mix

Step 5: Take the prepped Dump Cake to the microwave and leave it in for 10 minutes it is normal to see the mixture bubbling... BUBBLING IS GOOD!

When the microwave is done you have your Dump Cake! Your Dump Cake should look like a cake/pie when done. It is normal to see some cake mix not really baked just mixed it in to the rest of the cake and you should be fine!

Enjoy!
