Mixed Fruit Dump Cake

Your husband just came home from the neighbor's house and tells you he invited him to come for dinner in an hour, you quickly pull another steak from the freezer and throw together this amazing dessert using whatever fruits you have in the refrigerator. Voila!!  A great finish to your dinner in less than an hour's time.

Mixed Fruit Dump Cake

In this version, I used up some rhubarb, blackberries, and strawberries that were perfect for baking or smoothies but no longer beautiful enough to serve by themselves....

  5. What ever name this goes by, it's GOOD. I love the fruits that you used and you're right, sometimes those almost past their prime fruits are best for desserts like this.
