Becki Perkings made this for a potluck dinner and it was a hit . . . a cake that I just couldn’t stop eating! Because it’s a dump cake, it is super easy, too. Dump cakes were popular in the late 60s and early 70s and I often made a version of this cake back then. I found the recipe in a Kansas City Nazarene Church cookbook by soon-to-be sister-in-law gave me for a shower gift. It’s one of those old recipes that become new again!
