milk

vanilla

semi-sweet chocolate chips (1 1/3 cups)

corn syrup (or butter if you prefer)

Refrigerate the cake for one hour.

I just made this Pineapple Dump Cake for a family gathering, and it was a hit! So easy to prepare, and the burst of pineapple flavor is amazing. Definitely adding this to my go-to dessert recipes! Thank you for sharing!

Oh, my goodness! This dessert was fantastic. I was out if butter but had a good quality margarine on hand, so I used that. It turned out perfectly, not greasy or unpleasant at all. Nice crispy crust and delicious pineapple bottom... so good! I'm so happy that I tried this recipe. ☺️ 🍍

I made this but I used cherry 🍒.  Was delicious.  I also made one with pineapple and blueberries.  Soo good.

My 8 year old daughter helped me make this cake. We enjoyed it. She requested extra ice cream scoops on top hehe
