My Grandma passed away at the age of 94. She was a wonderful cook and I was lucky enough to inherit her recipes. Many date back to the 1940s and 50s. Grandma prepared them in a charming country kitchen with no running water and most of her produce came from her garden, not from the grocery store. These are made-from-scratch recipes. I wish I had spent more time with her in the kitchen and . . . I wish I had spent more time with her for so many other reasons.

Cake - Dump Cake

I remember making this recipe as a youngster in my Brownie troop.  It was a favorite at Camp.

1pkg yellow cake mix
1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple in syrup (undrained)
1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter cut into thin slices

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a 13 x 9" pan.  Dump undrained pineapple into pan; spread evenly.  Dump in pie filling and spread into even layer.  Dump dry cake mix onto cherry layer; spread evenly.  Put butter slices over the to.  Bake for 48 - 53 minutes.  Serve warm.
