Time for The Tips!
- Warm or room temperature is the best way to enjoy your dump cake.
- Any kind of butter will work in this recipe, salted or unsalted.
- If the middle of the cake jiggles when you gently shake the pan, it’s done. When you check for movement and see none, it means your cake is done.

- Instead of slicing the cold butter, you might just pour the melted butter over the cake mix.
- Feel free to use any canned fruit you choose in place of the cherries.
