This Rhubarb Dump Cake is so easy, it literally requires no mixing! Just dump all the ingredients in the cake pan by layers and watch the cake/crisp do it’s magic in the oven. I say cake/crisp because it’s kind of like a cross between a cake and a crisp. Really buttery and crisp crust but yet, cakey at the same time.
Is it bad to eat cake for dinner? No??? Then good, because that is what I did for supper tonight. The only thing I have growing in my garden right now is rhubarb. I’ve been dying to plant some herbs and tomatoes, but it has got to below freezing here the last couple of weeks. I’m afraid to plant anything else besides rhubarb.
My garden has a ton of grass growing in it right now and my backyard almost looks like a scene from the Jungle book. 2 weekends ago, the hardware store came and picked up my lawnmower. It’s having some issues right now and won’t start. They STILL haven’t got it back to me yet, but they said hopefully by Friday this week, I’ll get it or early Monday next week. Thank God, because the neighbors are probably starting to think I am lazy. I actually went and asked my nice neighbors if they would mow my front yard and I offered to pay for gas. They said no worries about gas money and went and did it anyway. This weekend, I plan on baking some cookies and giving them to my neighbors.

Getting ready to mate this now but I’ve already cooked down my rhubarb so I’m going to lay the rhubarb in the pan and sprinkle just a tiny bit of sugar over top of it because it’s a bit tart then do the cake mix and then do the butter I’m hoping that it will turn out right I will let you know

Of course, check their website for correct measurements though. Not really sure how much splenda you use.
Nancy says
Can you use Splenda instead of sugar for less points!

I thought there would be a recipe for rhubarb dump cake and here I found it. I will be making it for work tomorrow. I am looking forward to making it in for my employees to try it!
Jenna says
Yes. White will work too.
Barb says
I’m assuming you could use a white cake mix as well. (That’s what I have on hand)
Jenna says
Yes to both. Updated recipe. Thanks.

This recipe is in the oven now, but ingredient list says 1/2 sugar. I am assuming you mean 1/2 cup. Also, the ingredients says 1 and 1/2 stick melted butter, but direction says to pour 1 stick melted butter over cake mix. Just needs a little clarification. Hope it tastes as yummy as it smells. Thanks.
