Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Spread the blackberries evenly across the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle sugar and vanilla extract over the berries to give them a little extra sweetness.
In a bowl, combine the purple velvet cake mix, baking powder, and salt. Pour the milk into the dry mixture, stirring until just combined.
Pour the cake batter over the blackberries. Don’t worry about perfection—this is a dump cake after all!
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly. You want that middle to still be a little gooey, trust me.
