Time for The Tips!

  1. Buttery Bliss: Save time by melting the butter in the microwave. Once melted, drizzle it over the cake mix before popping it into the oven. It’s a quick and easy way to get that golden, buttery goodness on top!
  2. Crunchy Crisp Option: If you’re craving a crunchy texture akin to a peach crisp, consider adding quick or old-fashioned oats to the cake mix before baking. This simple addition can take your dump cake to the next level of deliciousness.
  3. Fruitful Variations: Don’t limit yourself to just peaches! Experiment with other fruits like blackberries, blueberries, cherries, raspberries, and apples. Canned fruits work perfectly for this recipe; you can follow the same instructions. Get creative and mix it up to discover your favorite flavor combination!
