This easy peach cobbler dump cake is another one of those amazing doctored cake mix recipes. I love using cake mix as a base for all kinds of yummy desserts, especially dump cake recipes!

Some of my favorite cake mix recipes include these mini funfetti donuts, cake mix coffee cake, and everyone’s favorite cake mix Oreo cookies.

For Lauren’s graduation, we hosted a sundae bar, but I knew I wanted more than Texas sheet cake as an option to pair with vanilla ice cream.

That’s where easy peach cobbler dump cake comes in… or easy peach cobbler with cake mix if you want to get super specific. And super delicious.

What is a dump cake?

A dump cake is a delicious, magical dessert where you combine all the ingredients (and the list is usually pretty short—yay!) directly in a pan before baking. The recipe always, or almost always, includes a cake mix.

If you don’t count the vanilla ice cream, this easy peach cobbler dump cake requires only four ingredients: canned peaches, cake mix (this yellow cake mix is my fave), butter, and cinnamon. That’s it!

I guess it’s not that hard to believe those four simple ingredients can make such a wonderfully scrumptious dessert. I mean, we’re talking PEACHES and CAKE combined with BUTTER and CINNAMON.

One version of this easy peach cobbler with cake mix has you melting the butter and drizzling it all over the cake mix. I prefer thinly slicing the butter and placing those pats of buttery goodness all over the top.

If you slice the butter thinly, you can pretty much cover the entire surface of the dump cake.

No matter how you slice it (see what I did there?), this easy peach cobbler dump cake needs to become a summer potluck staple. And because you use canned peaches, it can also become a fall, winter, and spring potluck staple. Yay!

      I’m not sure how it would work since you use the liquid in the canned peaches to mix with the cake mix. Without that liquid, the cake mix would probably come out dry. Sorry!

        Hi, can you use pumpkin pie in a can? and if yes, what liquid can I use?

      I haven’t tried it that way yet but I’ve wanted to. I did see a similar recipe calling for two 21-ounce cans of apple pie filling so maybe try that? Sorry I’m not more help!

    can it be frozen and made ahead

      I don’t think you’d want to do that with this dish because of the liquid from the peaches. You might be able to freeze leftovers, but even that is a bit iffy.
