Totally Delicious Blueberry Dump Cake

Hi everyone! For Tuesday Treats today I am going to show you how to make a blueberry dump cake! This recipe is originally from, Scattered Thoughts From A Crafty Mom. Now you may be sitting there thinking, "A dump cake? What in the world is a dump cake?" Well let me introduce you to the world of dump cakes! A dump cake is one of the easiest desserts you can possibly make.  Here's what you do: you get your ingredients together (usually there's not many), "dump" them into a pan, and bake! That's where the name comes from. Super easy and super yummy. I'll bet you have all the ingredients right in your kitchen. One of the beauties of a dump cake is that if you don't have one ingredient, let's say blueberries, you can use something else like cherries. Dump cakes usually call for a type of pie filling and frozen or fresh fruit as well. I'm sitting here right now smelling the wonderful aroma of this dump cake filling my house. I can't wait to share the recipe with all of you! So let's get started!!

Here's what you'll need;

- 1 box of yellow cake mix (I didn't have yellow on hand so I had to use lemon. Either will taste great.)
- 1 21oz. can of blueberry pie filling
- 1 large can of crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- 1 stick of salted butter

Directions;

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2: Spread the can of blueberry pie filling at the bottom of a 9x13 cake pan. (you can use one that's a similar size, but no bigger)

Step 3: Spread crushed pineapple over pie filling. Make sure you drain it first! Sprinkle the coconut and 3/4 of the blueberries on top. (Note, you don't have to use all of the coconut, just make sure you use enough that you have a medium sized coverage over the pan.)

Step 4: Evenly sprinkle the cake mix over the top of the fruit.

Step 5: Melt 3/4 of the stick of butter in the microwave for 40 seconds. (Make sure it's melted all the way. If not put it back in for a little bit longer.) Drizzle it as evenly as you can over the cake mix.

Step 6: Thinly slice the rest of the stick of butter and place the pieces over any dry cake mix still showing.

Step 7: Sprinkle the rest of the blueberries on the top of the cake mix.

Step 8: Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until the top is golden brown.

Step 9: Serve with ice cream and Enjoy!!
