Grilled Banana Chocolate Chip Dump Cake
This Grilled Banana Chocolate Chip Dump Cake is a tropical twist on classic dump cake, with gooey bananas, rich chocolate, and buttery goodness. Throw it on the grill, and watch as dessert steals the show at your next BBQ!
Equipment
- 1 Grill-safe pan or cast-iron skillet
Ingredients
- 4 ripe bananas mashed (the mushier, the better—think overripe, not brown-mush-in-your-bag ripe)
- 1 box yellow cake mix because we're not making this from scratch, darling
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted (yes, melted, because nobody has time to stir rock-hard butter)
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips and I mean at least 1/2 cup... you know who you are
Instructions
- Preheat that grill to medium heat—because yes, we’re fancy like that.
- Spray a grill-safe dish or cast-iron skillet with non-stick cooking spray (or use butter if you want extra flavor points).
- Spread your mashed bananas like you’re frosting a cake. A very lumpy, yellow cake.
- Sprinkle the cake mix over the bananas. Don’t worry about it being perfectly even—this cake is called "dump" for a reason!
- Drizzle that melted butter over the cake mix like you’re drizzling gold. (And if it feels like you’re going a bit overboard, you’re probably doing it right.)
- Sprinkle chocolate chips over everything—because life’s too short for chocolate chips to be optional.
- Place the dish on the grill and shut the lid. Now let the magic happen! Grill for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and set, and the smell drives your neighbors wild with envy.
- Let it cool slightly, if you can wait that long (no judgment if you can’t), and dig in.
