Adjust the amount of filling. I like my cherry dump cake bursting with cherries, so I use two full cans. You could easily use a smaller amount if you’d prefer.
Use fresh fruit. Swap out the canned filling for pitted whole cherries. Blueberries, blackberries, or strawberries would also taste delicious.
Since raspberries are more delicate, I recommend using preserves for that flavor.
Want a different flavor? Try swapping out the yellow mix for chocolate or replace one of the cans of cherries with crushed pineapple instead.
Since it’s just cake mix and pie filling, another variety of fruit like apple or peach would work just as well.
Add a topping for extra texture. Combine brown sugar and chopped almonds in a bowl, then sprinkle the mixture on before baking.
Shredded coconut with pecans is another tasty combination.
Tip for a hands-off approach: You can make this dump cake with cherry pie filling in a slow cooker as well!
Just follow the same process and cook it on High for 2 hours or on Low for 4 hours.
