Randomness from me, to you... Because it's my birth month!
Recipe from My personal cookbook. (Written for my children.)
Dump Cake:
2 cups self-rising flour (Sifted)
2 cups sugar
2 cups milk
2 cups fruit (Hard fruits such as apples and pears must be blanched first. Canned/frozen fruit work great if drained. Can also use pie filling.)
1 tsp vanilla (if you're using apple, try adding a touch of cinnamon. I prefer the apple without cinnamon, but that's me.)
¼ cup butter (NOT MELTED - I use ½ a stick and cut into pats and then cut the pats in ½)
Pre-Heat Oven to 350. In a 9 X 9 greased pan place fruit/pie filling of your choice in the bottom of the pan. Place ½ of the butter pats on top of the fruit and set aside the rest.
Mix flour, sugar, milk and vanilla together until there are no lumps. Pour on top of fruit. Bake for 45 minutes (time varies based on pan type and location.) when a toothpick comes out clean when poked in the middle. Remove from oven and place remaining butter on top to melt into the hot cake.
Let set until room temperature serve cut into 9 pieces with whipped cream or… cut into 9 pieces and serve warm with ice cream or plain.
My favorite uses fresh freshly picked ripe mulberries. The trees were considered an invasive plant when I was a child. I saw it as free treats. Other families call this cobbler… sorry, this is nothing like the cobbler I was raised on which was, pie shell on the bottom, fruit, pie shell, fruit, topped with pie shell and sugar. Yup, a cobbler has 3 pie shells and 2 pie filling. The top and bottom being slightly thicker.

I laughed so hard when I read about shopping for wine glasses in the vase department. 😂😂
