Recipe Ingredients
The simplicity of these ingredients is what makes this dump cake recipe so easy and convenient.
Cherry Pie Filling: The primary flavor and moisture for the cake. The cherry pie filling contributes sweetness, a fruity flavor, and a moist texture to the finished dessert. It's the "cherry" element of the chocolate cherry combination.
Devil's Food Cake Mix: Provides the structure and chocolate flavor for the cake. The cake mix contains flour, sugar, cocoa, leavening agents, and other ingredients necessary to create a cake-like texture. It's the "chocolate" element of the dessert and adds convenience to the recipe.
Butter: Adds richness, moisture, and flavor to the cake. The melted butter helps to bind the dry cake mix together and creates a tender, moist crumb.
