Equipment

  • 1 9" x 13" baking dish or pan

Ingredients
  

  • 2 15-ounce cans apricot halves in syrup drained
  • 1 15.25-ounce box yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will give you just enough time to contemplate whether you’ve ever actually seen an apricot in the wild.
  • Drain the apricot halves and arrange them evenly in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Imagine you’re creating a fruity foundation for your dream cake—no pressure.
  • Sprinkle the yellow cake mix evenly over the apricots. No need to mix—this is a dump cake, after all. Channel your inner lazy diva!
  • Sprinkle the shredded coconut and chopped pecans over the cake mix, then dust with cinnamon and nutmeg. It’s like a tropical vacation meets a cozy autumn day!
  • Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the cake. Every inch of that cake mix should get some buttery love.
  • Pop the dish in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly. The smell wafting through your kitchen will be so good, your neighbors might "accidentally" drop by.
  • Allow the cake to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm, preferably with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and enjoy the sweet, dreamy deliciousness.
