If You Can Pour...

 Then you can make this dessert! Last Thanksgiving I shared my Pumpkin Dump Cake with you in the spirit of the autumn season. The idea of a "dump cake" is pretty straight forward. You dump everything into the baking dish, cook it and in little less than an hour you have a dessert warm from the oven. What I love about them is the use of a dry cake mix making it so time friendly; and giving the cake a more cobbler or crisp texture. By using the mix dry and adding butter instead of the normal eggs, water and oil, it becomes something totally different than the prepared cake. So in that same spirit I decided to do another one this fall with pumpkin's distant autumn cousin...the apple. Or more specifically apple pie filling. Not to mention another favorite of this time of year, pecans. There is just something about the smell of apples, spices and nuts baking the oven that make me want to put on a hoodie, grab a mug of hot apple cider, and go on a hayride. This is great served warm w/ a scoop of ice cream, or with a little dollop of whipped cream. If you are looking for a sweet treat to get your family into the autumn spirit, this is definitely one to try. Or, even jot down and tuck away for next month and Turkey Day!

Apple Dump Cake
2 cans no sugar added apple pie filling
1 (18.25oz) box butter pecan cake mix
2 sticks butter, thinly sliced
1 c. pecan chips
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/4 c. brown sugar

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray. Spread pie filling into bottom. Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir well. Sprinkle with brown sugar and then cake mix. DO NOT MIX. Sprinkle with pecans. Top with butter slices. Cover dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes to an hour until browned and set. Refrigerate leftovers.
