Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Crock Pot Tropical Dump Cake
  1. Begin your Crock Pot Tropical Dump Cake by gently combining the cherry pie filling and the canned fruit cocktail in your slow cooker. Spread the fruit mixture evenly across the bottom.
  2. Next, evenly sprinkle the dry lemon cake mix over the fruit mixture without stirring, covering the fruit completely.
  3. Slice cold butter into thin pats and place them evenly over the cake mix to ensure even melting.
  4. Sprinkle sweetened coconut flakes generously on top of the buttered cake mix.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and set it to low heat for approximately 4 hours, watching for bubbling and golden color.
  6. Once cooking is complete, turn off the slow cooker and allow the cake to rest for about 10 minutes before serving.
