Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preparing the Oven and Baking Dish
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.

  6. Pour the entire can of strawberry pie filling over the pineapple chunks, spreading it evenly.
  7. Step 4: Arranging the Sliced Bananas
  8. Place the sliced bananas on top of the strawberry pie filling, creating a layer that covers the entire dish.
  9. Step 5: Adding the Coconut Cake Mix
  10. Evenly sprinkle the entire box of Dolly Parton's Coconut Cake Mix over the banana layer.
  11. Step 6: Adding the Butter Slices
  12. Place the sliced butter evenly on top of the cake mix, covering as much surface area as possible.
  13. Step 7: Baking the Dump Cake
  14. Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for approximately 45-50 minutes or until the top turns golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
  15. Step 8: Cooling and Serving
  16. Once baked, remove the dump cake from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve warm and enjoy the tropical flavors of this delightful dessert.
