It is ultimate dessert day. Trust me on
0:03
this one, you guys, when I say this
0:05
one's going to be delicious.
0:08
Buttery blueberry dump cake. Now, when
0:11
you hear dump cake, you know it's going
0:13
to be easy because we're going to be
0:14
using boxed cake mix.
0:17
Got to have the butter.
0:19
And I'm going to be using fresh
0:20
blueberries, and I'm going to show you
0:22
how you're going to get that pie filling
0:24
flavor from the blueberries here without
0:27
using those canned pie fillings.
0:30
All right, you guys. I'm Catherine with
0:31
Catherine's Plates. Y'all come on down
0:33
here cuz we're doing this in a pie dish.
0:36
It's about 10 in wide and then 2 in
0:39
deep. It'll just make a nice
0:39
presentation. It'll just make a nice
0:40
presentation. It'll just make a nice
0:44
So, because we're doing that, I'm going
0:46
to be using 1 pint of these fresh
0:51
Now, you want to make sure that you wash
0:53
them really good. So, I'm just going to
0:54
put them into my strainer, colander.
0:59
All right. We're going to go ahead and
1:02
Now, once you've washed your
1:04
blueberries, I just take some paper
1:05
towels and I just kind of rubbed them
1:07
over the blueberries to take some of
1:08
that excess water off. We're going to
1:10
add them to our pie plate.
1:13
You just want enough to cover the
1:22
You don't want it too deep. You don't
1:24
want two layers of blueberries. Just get
1:27
Just make sure you fill in all the
1:31
Now, I know y'all are going to ask me
1:33
why did I not spray my pie plate before
1:36
putting the blueberries in?
1:38
Because they're going to create their
1:40
layer down here, and you're not going to
1:41
need that spray. And you can also do
1:44
this in a 9 by 13. And if you're going
1:47
to do that, you want to make sure that
1:48
the blueberries cover the whole bottom
1:50
of your pan, okay? That way, the mixture
1:54
will sit on all of the blueberries. All
1:56
right. Now, what we're going to do is
1:58
create the blueberry mixture.
2:02
We're not going to be cooking anything.
2:03
I'm just going to put some stuff on top
2:05
of the blueberries and then we'll mix it
2:06
all together. And the first thing we're
2:10
is we're going to sprinkle 1/3 cup of
2:12
white granulated sugar across the
2:20
Now if you want to lessen the amount of
2:22
sugar, you can do that. If you want to
2:23
put a different type of sugar,
2:25
you can do that also. Now I'm going to
2:27
be using a cornstarch,
2:30
1 and 1/2 Tbsp. That will help thicken
2:34
the base down here as it's cooking.
2:39
So 1 and 1/2 Tbsp going in and I'm just
2:41
going to kind of sprinkle this around.
2:47
That was one and then another half.
2:51
Now to waken up those blueberries, I'm
2:53
going to squeeze in a little bit of
3:06
Or a little less, whatever you want.
3:12
Thomas loves some cinnamon, so we're
3:14
going to put in some ground cinnamon.
3:18
About a quarter of a teaspoon.
3:21
You don't want to overpower it.
3:23
And then we're going to go in with a
3:26
quarter teaspoon of salt.
3:32
Take a spatula and we're going to mix
3:36
until well combined. You want those
3:38
blueberries evenly coated with all the
3:43
Just do it nice and carefully.
3:47
Now once you get everything well coated,
3:52
we're going to put them back in there
3:55
to cover the bottom of the dish.
3:57
We're between summer and fall right now
4:02
you can make this anytime.
4:06
It really just takes about 10 minutes to
4:08
put together and then your cook time.
4:13
That's what it should look like.
4:16
We're going to take the easiest part of
4:17
the recipe, it's the box cake mix.
4:22
We're going to take it out of the box.
4:24
Now, I'm doing the classic yellow and
4:27
this one is 15.25 oz size.
4:32
It doesn't matter what size box cake mix
4:34
you have, okay? If it comes lower in the
4:37
amount or you have more, that's that's
4:41
So, we're going to take this and we're
4:42
going to sprinkle it all over the
4:47
We're going to evenly place this all
4:49
over the blueberries, the whole pack.
4:58
All right, we're going to evenly spread
5:04
Now, we're not packing it in, okay? If
5:10
give you that cakey consistency. Kind of
5:13
fluff it up as we go.
5:18
Just like that. Take two sticks of
5:21
butter out of your refrigerator. This is
5:23
going to equal one cup and we're going
5:26
to take them out of the wrapper and
5:27
we're going to cut them into pads.
5:34
And as many pads as you can get off the
5:36
stick of butter, the better.
5:38
Cuz we're going to place it all over the
5:40
top of the cake here.
5:48
Now, I'm cutting them as thin as I can
5:50
get them. About like that, a quarter of
5:58
Now, it's been known that you can just
5:59
melt the butter and then pour it all
6:02
But, I'm trying to give y'all an
6:04
authentic version of a dump cake. And
6:07
plus, we're not using another dish to
6:11
This is all happening right here.
6:15
On to the second stick. What's your
6:17
favorite butter to use? This is ours
6:21
Tillamook or the Irish butter, which is
6:26
Now, may not have to use the full stick.
6:31
But, just have it ready.
6:33
This will melt and create a delicious
6:35
crust on top of the cake here. And the
6:37
more butter you have on there, it's the
6:40
more liquid that'll help that cake
6:49
You want people to go, "Mhm,
6:59
All right, we're just going to go crazy
7:05
>> And right there. That looks good right
7:07
there. All right, that's what I had left
7:11
This is going to feel like a cobbler or
7:17
We're going to place this in the oven
7:19
that's been preheated at 350°. Now, this
7:22
is where it's going to take some time.
7:23
45 to 55 minutes. You want that crust to
7:27
be nice and golden brown and everything
7:29
from the bottom heated through. All
7:31
right, we'll be back. Thomas, he's
7:34
making some coffee for this.
7:36
>> I'm going to be serving mine up with
7:38
some ice cream. Or you could even get
7:40
some whipped topping and do that. But,
7:42
serve it with something.
7:44
Here it is, my ultimate buttery
7:53
Of course, I got the ice cream.
7:55
I'm going to put some on a plate. I'm
7:57
going to give this a try for you. Oh,
7:59
all those blueberries right there. That
8:04
This is the perfect thing to have if you
8:07
have like one or two people
8:09
or up to four, and you just want to make
8:11
it one serving for everybody.
8:16
See all those blueberries in there?
9:02
That texture is delicious.
9:06
>> Thomas is doing the happy dance back
9:09
>> I haven't even tasted it yet.
9:11
>> Not yet. But, he's got his coffee ready.
9:13
I told y'all y'all was going to have my
9:15
ice cream ready. Or, get your Cool Whip
9:19
That is amazing. It's buttery. Oh my
9:22
gosh, it is so delicious. And with fall
9:24
coming right around the corner and
9:25
summer still here, we got best of both
9:28
worlds with one dessert.
