A simple and delicious 5-ingredient rhubarb dump cake that requires minimal effort.

  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound rhubarb, cut into ¼-inch slices
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 (3 ounce) package strawberry flavored Jell-O mix
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup water
  • ¼ cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Spread rhubarb evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  3. Sprinkle sugar over rhubarb, followed by gelatin mix, and finally cake mix.
  4. Pour water and melted butter over the top. Do not stir.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until rhubarb is tender, about 45 minutes.

Notes

  • You can use frozen rhubarb if fresh is unavailable.
  • If the cake mix appears powdery after baking, gently press it down.
  • Jell-O adds flavor but can be substituted with another flavored gelatin mix.
  • To prevent excess moisture, avoid stirring the ingredients before baking.
