Instructions
Layer the Filling and Cake Mix
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and lightly coat a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray. Pour both cans of apple pie filling into the dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the top of the apple filling without stirring.
Add Butter and Bake
Lay the butter pats evenly across the entire surface of the dry cake mix, making sure to cover as much of the mix as possible so it bakes through without dry spots. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
Cool and Serve
Remove the dump cake from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving so the filling thickens slightly. Scoop into bowls and serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent dessert.
