Hostess CupCakes Dump Cake
Darlings, if there’s one thing I know for sure, it’s that sometimes a diva just needs her cupcakes—preferably without the hassle of baking them from scratch.
Enter the Hostess CupCakes Dump Cake, the dessert that says, “I’m here for a good time, not a long time.”
Picture this: rich chocolate, juicy blackberries, and a buttery top all coming together in one gloriously easy creation. Yes, we’re talking minimal effort for maximum yum—my favorite kind of recipe!
Now, I’ll be honest, this cake might just ruin you for all other desserts. It’s so decadent, so sinfully delicious, that you’ll find yourself making excuses to whip it up. “Oh, it’s Tuesday? Perfect occasion for a dump cake!”
So grab those Hostess CupCakes (if they make it to the baking dish), and let’s turn that sweet tooth into a sweet triumph.
Trust me, your taste buds will thank you—and so will your inner diva!
Hostess CupCakes Dump Cake
Equipment
- 1 9" x 13" baking dish or pan
Ingredients
- 6 Hostess CupCakes cut into chunks—try not to eat them all first
- 1 21-ounce can blackberry pie filling
- 1 15-ounce can blackberries undrained—because we’re keeping it juicy
- 1 box chocolate cake mix the more chocolate, the better, am I right?
- 1 cup butter melted—because everything’s better with butter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C)—because a cold oven is no friend to a dump cake.
- Spread the blackberry pie filling and blackberries (with juice) evenly in a 9x13-inch baking dish. This is your base of fruity goodness.
- Arrange the CupCake chunks over the fruit mixture. Try to resist the urge to sneak a piece—okay, maybe just one.
- Sprinkle the dry chocolate cake mix evenly over the top. Remember, neatness counts, but this is a dump cake, so embrace the chaos.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the cake mix. Butter makes everything better, especially cake.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly. If it smells like heaven, you’re on the right track.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Top with a dollop of whipped cream for added sweetness—because why not?

Diva's Sweet Suggestions
Use cherry pie filling instead of blackberry for a different berry experience—because sometimes you feel like a cherry, sometimes you don’t.
Add a teaspoon of almond extract to the melted butter for a unique flavor—because you’re fancy like that.
Top with crushed Oreo cookies before baking for added texture and flavor—because more chocolate is always a good idea.
Presentation Suggestions:
Serve this indulgent dessert warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and for a touch of elegance, garnish with fresh blackberries and a sprig of mint.
Or, go all out and drizzle some chocolate sauce on top—because more chocolate is never a bad thing!
