Instructions: Grease a 9 x 13 baking dish or pan. Mash sweet potatoes. Stir in pecans and or pineapple. Spread in baking dish. Sprinkle with coconut. Sprinkle cake mix over top. Melt butter and pour over top of cake mix. Bake at 350 deg. for 45 minutes to an hour.

I also make "dump pies". Instead of pie filling I use canned fruit.

I put a can of fruit in the baking dish along with any "optional" I want. I sprinkle cake mix over that and pour a stick of melted butter over the top. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour. Of course you can use any combination. My favorite is canned apricots with lemon cake mix. It is also nice to combine canned fruit with pie filling. Blueberry pie filling with canned peaches make a nice combination.
