This recipe is so easy, I can't believe it tastes this good. Unlike other reviewers, mine didn't come out too sweet. I used one can of pineapple chunks and one can of sliced mango. I think pie filling has too much sugar in it and that's what makes the cake very sweet. Use canned fruit without added sugar for a less sweet cake. Also, I found that freezing the butter made it easier to slice it very thin. Finally, in order to avoid dry patches of cake mix from gaps between butter slices, I took the cake out of the oven after ten minutes and swirled the very top of the cake with a fork so that the now melted butter was more evenly ditributed throughout top of the cake. The result was yummy!

This was easy and good. The pan, however, needs to be buttered. I found it a bit too sweet - maybe next time I will use tart cherries instead of cherry pie filling. Also, I will double or even triple the amount of nuts (I used pecans instead of walnuts) - they made the cake!

This recipe also works well in the crock pot! The last time I had a party at my house I put this is the crock pot and kept it on a low setting. My guest loved it! You can also vary the fruits, I once used pears instead of pineapple, and you can vary the nuts too. Try a sprinkling of instant apple cinnamon oatmeal on top! But this recipe as written is very good and very easy. Thanks for sharing!

This is one of my Favorite Recipes as you can see, I posted the photo of my Dump Cake. My neighbor could have sworn I made mine with cherries however, I used Strawberry Pie Filling and it was gobbled up and gone with in the hour of making it! You will NOT be disappointed in this recipe!

This was an excellent recipe! I didn't have crushed pineapple, so I used chunk and drained all but a cup of the juice, and it still game out great. My fiance ate half the pan within a 1/2 hour! Thanks!

Love this cake. I use pecans instead of walnuts and top it with coconut. Really good warm or cold with whipped cream on top.

Very good and is definitely a fruit crisp, not cake. Cherry pie filling is way too sweet, especially with the very sweet cake crust on top. The 2nd time, I used canned Oregon Fruit Company Tart Cherries (in water) and it was much better and took away from the 'canned' taste of the dessert. If using canned cherries, make sure to drain the water or else it will be too much liquid. Can also bake in a 8 x 11 dish, just increase the baking time by 10 min. for the cake crust to cook through. Very easy to make and great with ice-cream. Serve warm for best taste. Remember, use tart canned cherries!

Just made this and it was a hit in my family. So easy and really tasty. I used pecans and put the nuts and coconut on on top of the pinapple. It came out great. I served it warm with vanilla ice cream so it didn't seem too sweet although I may try the light cherry pie filling next time just too see the difference. I used a yellow butter cake mix, that's all I had. Will definitely make again. Thanks for the great recipe.

I got this recipe from my mother-in-law years ago,but I had forgotten how to make it. She used almond slivers instead of walnuts, however I cannot eat nuts so I sprinkle the top with coconut. I also have used i can of evaporated milk instead of butter far a little differant taste.

This was a hit! My husband said it looked funny, but tasted great. I placed the cherries first, then the pineapple then the cake mix and finally the margarine. I used a white cake mix and it was great! Will make it again.

Everyone seemed to like this dessert at Christmas, but I do NOT like the taste of canned pineapple so next time I think I'll leave it out. Quick & easy dessert...

This was a huge hit at work. The only change I made was to leave out the nuts and mix in about 1/2 the cake batter with the fruit and then left the rest on top with the butter. Good recipe and I will make this one again!

This is one of my favorite recipes. I make it alot and my kids love it. The only thing i suggest is layer everything a little at a time and top it with the remaining cake mix, butter, and chopped walnuts. After it bakes it gives it a whole different flavor because the walnuts kind of roast on top.

Great recipe! I substituted white cake mix and pecans for the yellow cake mix and walnuts. Instead of melting the butter, I just sliced it and placed the pats of butter on top of the nuts. It was delicious!
