Equipment

  • 9 x 13 baking dish

Ingredients

Fruit Ingredients:

  • 4 Pounds Strawberries (fresh)(roughly chopped)
  • 2 Tablespoon Cornstarch
  • ½ Cup Sugar

Cake Mix Ingredients:

  • 1 Cup Sugar
  • Cups Flour
  • 2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ½ Teaspoon Salt
  • 3 Sticks Unsalted Butter (sliced)

Instructions

  • Prep the Oven and Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  • Prepare the Strawberry Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped strawberries, cornstarch, and ½ cup of sugar. Toss until the strawberries are evenly coated. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
  • Mix the Cake Topping: In another large bowl, whisk together the 1 cup of sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt. Sprinkle this dry mixture evenly over the top of the strawberries.
  • Add the Butter: Place the slices of unsalted butter evenly over the dry cake mix layer, covering as much of the surface as possible. The butter will melt and create a delicious golden crust during baking.
  • Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the strawberry filling is bubbling around the edges.
  • Cool and Serve: Let the dump cake cool for about 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for the ultimate treat!
