Peaches, Butter, and Brown Sugar - Oh My!

Growing up my mom made a cake we all loved - it was called Dump Cake. Basically, you dump in a can of peach pie filling, crushed pineapple, top with a boxed yellow cake mix, and a melted stick of butter. Bake and enjoy. We even sent all the ingredients down to Florida to my brother when he was going to school there to bake his own birthday cake.
These days the pineapple is a deal breaker for me - stupid allergies. I found this recipe for Peach Crisp and not only is something I can have - it's delicious. I like that it uses canned peaches in juice and adds some extra crisp on top with the brown sugar and chopped nuts on top. Warm with Vanilla Ice Cream on top? Oh, that would be perfect. Let's make it again but let's have ice cream with it. Ice Cream is always good, why wait for the cake! Oh, wait...

Peach Crunch Cake
24.5 oz jar of sliced peaches in light syrup
1 package yellow cake mix
1 stick butter (1/2 cup), cut into 16 pieces
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Layer ingredients in a 13 X 9 dish, in order starting with the peaches.
Bake for about 40 minutes.
Serve warm or cold… with or without ice cream.
