Don’t be put off by the name: Dump cakes are a great invention. Possibly one of the greatest inventions in the history of dessert. Just dump some summer fruit (or pudding) into a cake pan, top it with cake mix and pats of butter (no mixing allowed!) and bake until the top is golden brown and crispy. The results look like a crumble…but taste like cake. Here are 20 easy recipes to get you started.
