Peach Cobbler Dump Cake

This peach cobbler doesn't get any easier, and you only need one dish. Instead of cake mix, we used corn muffin mix for a savory, buttery flavor that takes this cobbler to the next level!

Dump S'mores

No need to wait for a campfire-- you can make s'mores on a sheet pan at home. Even better, you can make a lot at once. Let it cool, then break it up for snacks, a bake sale or easy weeknight dessert.

Chocolate Cherry Dump Cake

This elegant dessert is not your typical dump cake: Rich chocolate cake is covered with glossy cherry filling and sprinkled with toasted almonds — reminiscent of a Black Forest cake. It's a simple and flavorful crowd-pleaser.

Icebox Cake

Ree makes her own whipped cream for this classic icebox cake but if you use store-bought then all you need to do is layer, refrigerate and wait.
