Camp Out Dump Cake Recipes

CAMPING DUMP CAKE I

Steps:

• 1. Put cake mix into a bowl. Add can of pop. Stir (don't beat), until batter is formed (don't over stir... you want the bubbles from the pop to help the cake rise!)
• 2. Line a Dutch oven with a disposable aluminum foil round cake pan or just line the Dutch oven with foil. Butter the pan or foil.
• 3. Dump the canned pie filling over the bottom of the Dutch oven.
• 4. Pour the batter over the fruit. Put lid on Dutch oven.
• 5. Set the Dutch oven on 8 to 10 coals. Put 10 to 15 coals on the lid. Let cook 45 to 55 minutes. Brush the coals and coal dust off the lid before opening.
• 6. *** For a richer dessert, you can add 1 stick of butter or margarine cut in small pieces and scattered over the top of the batter. *** Let cool a little before serving. *** If you have ice cream or whipped cream available, put a scoop on the top or the side. *** You can use one flavor of fruit or two kinds of fruit...it is great either way!
