Why Do They Call It A Dump Cake?

The reason why this dessert is referred to as a dump cake, is because the different ingredients are dumped into the baking dish, in different layers.

First, you’ll dump in the apple pie filling, then the caramel, and finally a crumbly mixture of cake mix and butter for your topping.

YUM!
