Peach Dump Cake....Easy & Ummm Good!!!

This is for Pam....She doesn't like apples and wanted something made with peaches....



PEACH DUMP CAKE:

1 box cake mix (yellow cake mix or white cake mix)
1 can of chunky yellow cling peaches, drained
1 can of crushed pineapple, drained
1 stick of butter
1 - 1 1/2 cup of crushed nuts of choice (walnuts or pecans)
1/2 cup brown sugar



Preheat oven to 350.
Lightly grease (bottom only) of a cake pan (13x9).
Melt cubed butter in microwave and set aside.
Open canned peaches, drain and dump into cake pan. If desired cut peaches into smaller pieces, no need to do this prior just cut them while they are in the pan.
Sprinkle entire (dry) cake mix on top of peaches.
On top of cake mix add crushed drained pineapple
Sprinkle desired nuts on cake mix.
Pour butter evenly over nuts.
Sprinkle brown sugar over the top
Bake for 45 mins to 1 hour.
Cake will appear wet and uncooked but once cooked it is delicious, almost cobbler in nature. It is especially good served warm a la mode

My Gazebo That Brought Me So Much Pleasure!!!!






Next week I have to pack up everything that is in the Gazebo....store for the winter and then take all but the frame down and store it till next April, or if the weather was like it was this spring, till May....
I hope my ferns live inside, but I doubt they will....I know as soon as the fronds start to lose their leaves and make a mess they will end up outside to freeze....
It isn't even down yet and already I am missing it.....I spent many a morning having my coffee, reading and watching the birds...Had a beautiful flock of Orioles eating the grape jelly and orange halves, they brought me so much pleasure.....Well they have been gone for over a month now, the geese are flying south, nuts and leaves are falling, the nights are getting cooler...so time to part with this bit of pleasure for this year.....Till next year..
