At BHG, we understand that a meal isn't truly complete without a sweet ending. And when it comes to sweet endings, our most - saved recipe of 2025 stands out as a delicious and easy option: the lemon - blueberry dump cake. This delightful dessert combines the tangy flavor of lemon pie filling, the convenience of cake mix, and the fresh burst of blueberries.

One of the main reasons to try this dump cake is its simplicity. You don't need to be a professional baker to whip up this treat. The term "dump cake" says it all. You simply dump the ingredients into a baking pan in a specific order, and you're good to go. First, take a 9x13 - inch baking pan. Pour the lemon pie filling evenly across the bottom of the pan. The lemon filling adds a zesty and refreshing flavor that is both unique and appealing. It has that perfect balance of sweetness and tartness that makes it a crowd - pleaser.

Next, sprinkle the dry cake mix over the lemon pie filling. You don't have to worry about mixing the cake mix with anything else. Just let it sit on top of the filling. The cake mix forms the base and the crust of the dump cake. It bakes up into a golden - brown, crispy layer that contrasts beautifully with the soft and creamy lemon filling beneath it. There are various cake mixes available in the market, but for this recipe, a classic yellow cake mix works wonders. It complements the lemon flavor and provides a neutral base that allows the other ingredients to shine.

Now comes the star ingredient: fresh blueberries. Scatter the blueberries over the cake mix. The blueberries not only add a pop of color to the cake but also a burst of natural sweetness and a bit of texture. They are juicy and plump, and when baked, they release their flavors into the surrounding cake and filling. The combination of the blueberries with the lemon creates a flavor profile that is both fresh and decadent.

After adding the blueberries, dot the top of the cake with butter. The butter melts during the baking process and seeps into the cake mix, making it even more moist and flavorful. You can use either salted or unsalted butter, depending on your preference. Salted butter adds a bit of savory note, while unsalted butter allows the natural flavors of the other ingredients to come through more prominently.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking pan with all the ingredients in the oven and bake for about 45 - 50 minutes. You'll know the cake is done when the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The aroma that fills your kitchen while the cake is baking is simply heavenly. It's a combination of the warm, buttery cake, the tangy lemon, and the sweet blueberries.

Once the cake is baked, let it cool for a few minutes before serving. You can serve it warm or at room temperature. For an extra indulgence, top it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The cold, creamy ice cream pairs perfectly with the warm, sweet dump cake. It adds a contrast in temperature and texture that takes the dessert to a whole new level.

This lemon - blueberry dump cake is also very versatile. You can customize it according to your taste. If you don't have fresh blueberries, you can use frozen blueberries. Just make sure to thaw them slightly before adding them to the cake. You can also experiment with different cake mixes. For example, a white cake mix will give the cake a lighter color and a slightly different flavor. Or, if you're feeling adventurous, you can add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg over the cake mix for an extra layer of flavor.

In conclusion, the lemon - blueberry dump cake is a must - try dessert. It's easy to make, delicious to eat, and can be customized to suit your preferences. Whether you're having a family dinner, a party, or just want to treat yourself, this cake is the perfect choice. So, head to your kitchen, gather the ingredients, and give this 2025 favorite a try. You won't be disappointed!
