Notes

Variations: The brown sugar topping is optional but makes the topping a little more crunchy and more flavorful.  Chopped pecans can also be sprinkled over the top before baking for added crunch.
Frozen or Fresh Blackberries: Use frozen or fresh blackberries. Mix 4 cups of blackberries with juice of a lemon,  1/2 cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Cook until thickened. Proceed with recipe as directed.
Other Flavor Combinations: Dump cake can be made with virtually any pie filling or crushed pineapple and any flavor of cake mix. 
Storage: Store covered at room temperature up to 2 days. Refrigerate up to 3 days. Best within the first day.
