Chocolate Raspberry Dump Cake
Darling, let me tell you about the time I tried to impress my in-laws with a fancy dessert, only to drop a spatula, fling cake mix on my blouse, and forget the timer.
Tragedy? No—legendary, thanks to this Chocolate Raspberry Dump Cake.
It’s the kind of dessert that struts into the room, flips its hair, and says, “I woke up like this.”
One box of cake mix, one can of pie filling, a little melted butter, and boom—you’re halfway to hero status.
Toss in some chocolate chips and the will to live, and you’ve got a dessert that makes people think you went to pastry school when really you were watching Netflix with one hand in a bag of pretzels.
Whether you’re feeding a crowd, bribing coworkers, or just having a moment alone with your spoon, this gooey, chocolatey, berry-kissed dreamboat is here for you.
I call it the little black dress of dump cakes—always flattering, always fabulous, and totally effortless.
Chocolate Raspberry Dump Cake
Equipment
- 1 9" x 13" baking dish or pan
Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix any brand that speaks to your soul
- 1 21-ounce can raspberry pie filling
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or more, we’re not judging
- 1/2 cup butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and give it the same side-eye you give your bathroom scale.
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish (or just line it if you’re lazy like me).
- Dump in that raspberry pie filling and spread it out like you mean business.
- Sprinkle the chocolate cake mix evenly over the top. No mixing, no nonsense.
- Toss on the chocolate chips like you’re showering the cake with affection (and cocoa).
- Drizzle melted butter across the top in a zigzag pattern so it feels fancy.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the top is set and your kitchen smells like a chocolatey love letter.
- Let it cool just a bit before diving in—unless you're into tongue blisters. No judgment

Diva's Little Extras
Add almond extract (1/2 tsp) to the raspberry filling for that classy Black Forest twist.
Swap in white chocolate chips for a berry-and-cream vibe—like it got invited to a tea party.
Layer with crushed Oreos between the filling and cake mix for some extra crunch drama.
Presentation Suggestions:
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream melting all over it like it just saw Chris Hemsworth.
Dust with powdered sugar and a few fresh raspberries to convince people it’s gourmet.
Cut into squares, stick in a fancy toothpick, and suddenly it’s finger food at your wine night.
