Enjoy this delicious peach cobbler dump cake after your favorite southern meal! Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream if you’d like!
My grandfather was a man who loved dessert. He had dessert after just about every evening meal.
I loved going to my grandparent’s house because I knew that we would have something sweet before we went to bed.
As I grew older, my family and I skipped on dessert for a few reasons: 1) we were hungry now, so cooking extra food didn’t seem to be worth the wait 2) we started our waistlines!
However, every now and again, we want to indulge our sweet-tooth.
This recipe is also so simple that it takes very few minutes to prepare, and once you put it on to bake it will be ready to eat after preparing and eating the rest of your dinner.
What is dump cake?
Dump cake is a type of cake made by dumping (or layering) ingredients into a baking dish and then baking it.
The ingredients are usually simple, such as cake mix, fruit, and butter. The resulting cake is often moist and flavorful.
Dump cakes are often made with fruit fillings, such as cherry or apple.
Other popular flavors include chocolate, pumpkin, and lemon. The cake mix is usually a yellow cake mix, but other flavors can be used as well.

What can you pair with dump cake?
There are a few things you can do to pair dump cake. First, you can try it with ice cream. This will give you a sweet and rich flavor that is sure to please.
Another option is to serve it with whipped cream or even a dollop of frosting. This will add some extra sweetness and make the cake even more decadent.
Finally, if you want something a little different, you can try pairing dump cake with a savory dish like chicken or pork.
The contrast of the sweet cake with the savory flavors will create an interesting and delicious combination.
Can you freeze dump cake?
You can freeze dump cake, but it’s not necessarily the best way to enjoy this dessert. Dump cake is best served fresh and warm, straight out of the oven.
However, if you need to freeze it, wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and store in the freezer for up to 1 month.
When ready to serve, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and then reheat in a 350 degree F oven until warmed through. Enjoy!
How do you store leftover dump cake?
If you have leftover dump cake, there are a few storage options to keep in mind. The first is to keep it in the fridge, where it will last for several days.
Alternatively, you can freeze the cake, which will extend its shelf life for several months.
When storing dump cake, be sure to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to prevent it from drying out.
Different types of dump cakes
There are different types of dump cake, and each has its own unique flavor. Some of the most popular flavors include chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry.
Each type of dump cake is made with a different type of cake mix, and each has its own distinct flavor.
Chocolate dump cake is made with a chocolate cake mix and is typically topped with chocolate chips or chunks. The cake is then baked until the top is crispy and the inside is gooey.
Vanilla dump cake is made with a vanilla cake mix and is typically topped with white chocolate chips or chunks. The cake is then baked until the top is crispy and the inside is gooey.
