Description

Pecan Pie Dump Cake is a luscious dessert that blends the rich, nutty taste of pecan pie with the effortless preparation of a dump cake, featuring gooey caramel layers and a buttery cake topping.


Ingredients

  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup caramel topping
  • ½ cup salted caramel topping
  • ¼ cup melted butter
  • 3 cups pecan halves
  • 1 box butter pecan cake mix
  • 1 cup melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the beaten eggs, brown sugar, caramel topping, salted caramel topping, and ¼ cup melted butter. Mix until well combined.
  3. Fold in the pecan halves, ensuring they're evenly coated.
  4. Pour the pecan mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  5. In another bowl, mix the butter pecan cake mix with the remaining 1 cup of melted butter until the mixture is crumbly.
  6. Sprinkle the cake mix mixture evenly over the pecan layer in the baking dish.
  7. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
  8. Allow the cake to cool for about 15–20 minutes before serving.
