Ingredients:

Cobbler (Dump Cake)

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 3 (16 ounce) cans peaches, in lite syrup
  • 2 (18.25 ounces) boxes yellow cake mix
  • Cinnamon to taste

Directions:

  1. In 6-quart Dutch oven*, melt half stick of butter and brown sugar.
  2. Add canned fruit (syrup and all) and bring to a boil.
  3. Dump in the cake mix (do not mix - not necessary).
  4. Break the remaining half of the butter and crumble over cobbler.
  5. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes until cake-like (i.e. not gooey).

Makes 12 servings.

*Note: Scouts use an outdoor Dutch oven, which is a cast iron pot with lid that uses coals on the top and bottom as heat source; however, you can do the same with a kitchen Dutch oven in your "in-door" range/oven. Just preheat your oven and cook at 300°F.
