My favorite thing about the holiday season is getting to spend time with family and friends that I don’t have the chance to see throughout the year. It’s the one time of year where I can reconnect with all my loved ones and really enjoy their company. I don’t know about you, but for me, I always feel like I’m missing out on time with my family and friends because I’m behind the scenes, cooking and cleaning. This year I decided enough was enough! My time would be more enjoyable if I could just find a way to create our favorite holiday dishes but quickly and without a lot of mess.
I set to work finding a creative way to save time on our family favorites and I had a great idea for our dessert! The main dishes Imanaged to cook in the slow cooker, and for our favorite dessert I decided to try as a dump cake! My dad’s favorite isa chocolate cherrycake and we have it every holiday season! This year was going to be no exception, other than, I wasn’t going to spend all day baking it!
I headed to my local Giant Food store to grab my supplies! I find that my cake never turns out perfectly unless I use a very specific cake mix, so I highly recommend you try it.
I always choosePillsbury™ Moist Supreme Devil’s Food Cake mix. It comes out perfectly every time!
I’m so glad I chose a dump cake instead of spending all day baking! I love the spend the day in the kitchen baking holiday cookies with my family, but for big dinner days I prefer to just hang out with everyone without being so busy. This dump cake recipe was the perfect way to enjoy our favorite dessert without spending all day baking! Everyone raved about it!

This recipe was so easy to make and it was so delicious! I have decided that every year I am going to save the holiday baking fun for our annual cookie baking session, and make dump cakes for our holiday desserts to save time! I highly recommend this! Give yourself a little break from the business of the festivities and sit down and enjoy your friends and family too!
