Rey's Dump Cake - Recipe #9

This is a recipe my husband made for me while we were dating; I think it came from one of his aunts. Rey comes from a long line of bakers and making this recipe makes me feel a little more like them (since I can't bake for beans!). This is a go-to dessert for us because it's so incredibly easy and delicious! 

**I just got this tip from my auntie: You can also make a version of cobbler this way sweetie, just use canned peaches or any kind of canned pie filling instead of the fruit cocktail. It's just as deelish!

I love you baby :) Thanks for the recipe!

Ingredients

1 large can fruit cocktail
1 box cake mix (with pudding) – pick a white cake or a vanilla cake
Enough butter to “dot” the top of the cake – about 1 stick cut into small squares (or as much of a square as you can get, I usually just pinch off pieces of butter and throw them on top LOL)
Slivered almonds

Preheat oven to 375. Grease a 9 x 13 oven safe pan. Dump fruit cocktail into pan – juice & all. Pour cake mix evenly over the top – DO NOT MIX. Dot top of cake mix with butter. Sprinkle almonds over the top of that. Bake for 1 hour or until top is golden brown and fruit juice is bubbling through the cake mix around the edges. 

Serve hot with a scoop of French vanilla ice cream. 

Refrigerate leftovers (which are good cold or reheated). 
This is what it looks like when it's done
 Enjoy!
