Cissy still likes to come over one day a week, after school, and we bake together. This week she made a quick and easy dessert to take home to her family. The inspiration came from my Quick and Easy Dump Cake Cookbook that my son, Mike, gave me. We are enjoying it outside on a warm, Fall day.
Getting out my Fall teacups is always like meeting old friends. This Johnson Brothers Harvest Time teacup is a favorite.
My daughter took a picture of Cissy once she got home, as I had forgotten to! Cissy wore and Ohio State shirt, as it was favorite college team shirt day at school. My grands are Ohio State fans, too, since all four of my kids were born in Columbus, Ohio.
Yield: 9 servings
Apple Dump Cake
Cissy and I made this after school, for her take home to her family. It's a quick dessert and it was something easy for her to assemble. It's good with a scoop of vanilla or some whipped cream.
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 can apple pie filling
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- some freshly grated nutmeg
- 1 package of yellow cake mix
- 1 stick of butter, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (we used some caramel bits, but toffee bits would be good, too)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-inch square baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Spread apple pie filling in prepared pan and add the spices, and mix. Top with dry cake mix, spreading evenly. Top with butter in a single layer. Sprinkle on the nuts.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes. Cool at least 15 minutes before serving.

Way to go Cissy. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely one for a future Fall dessert! Your assistant reminds me of when my grands come to bake with me. XOXO
ReplyDeleteAwe, look at that sweet girl. She is so very pretty Kitty. Well, I pinned this recipe. My man will love this and it looks so simple. YAY, I need simple these days. Love your teacup! So pretty. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
ReplyDeleteKitty, what a sweet picture of your granddaughter! What a lovely smile she has. And that cake! If I weren't watching my calories, I'd make it asap. Sadly, I will have to wait until mid-December. Save me a piece! xo
ReplyDeleteShe is a doll! What a yummy recipe for this time of year! I have already gone through a bag of apples, and need to get some more. Love cooking with apples once September arrives.... Not feeling much like fall, it has been so warm, today 95 and humid! Hope all is well Kitty! Hugs! Linda
ReplyDeleteOh Kitty. I'm afraid I can no longer visit your blog or read your yummy posts lol. I am on a low-carb plan aka low-fun plan! This looks SO SO SO good though and you know how much I love my Buckeyes! Cissy looks adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove those dump cake recipes! I just made the one with cherry pie filling and crushed pineapple. Since I have to watch the sugar, I used a sugar-free cake mix and lite pie filling (has Splenda in it), and crushed pineapple in 100% natural juice. It was great!
ReplyDeleteI just saved this to my recipe file and can't wait to make it. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDelete🍎Yup, this is going to my dessert folder. Cissy is your perfect sidekick in the kitchen. 👱🏼♀️(I purchased the yarn for my project, but I need the right size crochet hook. I'll get it together eventually.)
ReplyDeleteA great recipe to make for last minute guests, love easy! Love the Harvest Time teacup and Cissy looks so cute and please with her cake. I'm sure her family enjoyed every bite. Saving this one....
ReplyDeleteHappy week Kitty.
Cissy has certainly inherited your love of baking. Your "dump cake" recipe is so easy that even I can follow it!
