Comfort in a Pan

We all have one. One of Mom's signature dishes that brings you comfort at just the thought, sight or smell of it. For me, it is my moms "Dump Cake." Just to clarify, "dump" is used as a verb, as in "dump the ingredients into the pan." :) This is, for me, the quintessential feeling of comfort and memories in a slice, and thank goodness it is so quick and easy to make. If your looking for something that smells so good your neighbors will be sneaking over for a slice then this is it! Its super sweet and filled with buttery amazingness! Enjoy
Ingredients:

1 can crushed pineapple
1 can cherry pie filling
1 box yellow cake mix
1 to 2 sticks butter or margarine

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Open and dump the can of pineapple into a 9 x 13 inch cake pan. Use a spoon to even it out in the pan. Open the can of cherry pie filling and gently use the spoon to dump it evenly on top of the pineapple. Open the box of cake mix and gently distribute the dry mix evenly on top of the fruit. Do not stir.

Cut the butter into little chunks and place the little chunks of butter evenly on top of the cake mix. (I use about 1 1/2 sticks of butter).

Bake at 350 for 50 minutes to one hour or until the cake is bubbly and golden brown. Serve warm (not hot) with or without a scoop of ice cream on top.
