Both are simple to make, easy to handle, and the kids love them!

Place other half of donut on top and wrap in foil. Cook on rack above coals for about 5 minutes or so, checking periodically so the bottom doesn't burn.
LAZY COBBLER
1 large can sliced peaches
1 package white cake mix
butter
cinnamon
When the Dutch Oven is preheated, put the whole can of peaches and juice into the oven.
Then add the dry cake mix on top of the peaches.
Place several pieces of butter on top, and sprinkle cinnamon all over.
Place lid on the over and bake about 45 minutes.
The recipe will give a layer of peaches with a cake covering that serves 8.
Variations
Stiff the cake mix and peaches when placed in the overn to provide a more spongy layer of cake.
Use canned apples instead of peaches, and add 1 tablespoon, cinnamon and 1 teaspoon allspice to the apples.
Use canned cherries instead of peaches, and add more sugar with the cherries.
Instead of white cake mix, use a yellow or spice cake mix.
PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 can sliced pineapple
1 yellow cake mix
1 egg
Place butter and brown sugar in the oven and stir until well mixed. Place the pineapple slices in the butter and sugar mixture in the bottom of the oven.
In a separate bowl, mix the cake mix and the egg. Pour this batter over the pineapple in the oven, then put the lid on the oven and bake about 30-40 minutes. Test the cade for doneness with a straw or toothpick.
When the cake is done, remove the coals from the oven, remove the lid and let the oven cool for about 10 minutes. Using a large cutting coard or a piece of card-board, covered with waxed paper, hold the board on top of the oven and invert the oven quickly. This will allow the cake to fall on the board and the pineapple will be on the top. A safer way to support the cake when you invert it is to cut the cardboard in a round piece the same size as the cake, and it will fit inside oven on the cake; then when the oven is inverted, the cardboard can be held directly under the cake.
This serves about 8.
Here's the recipe I use:
Ingredients:
1 'standard' (303) can of crushed pinapple
1 'standard' (303) can of your favorite pie filling
1 box of yellow cake mix
1 stick of butter or margarine
1 dutch oven (I use a #12)
optional - aluminum foil to line oven to speed cleanup (I use heavy duty, 2 layers)
'mixing'
line oven with foil, if you wish
open pineapple, dump into oven, spread evenly
open pie filling, dump into oven, spread evenly
open cake mix, dump into oven, spread evenly
slice butter or margarine into thin slices and spread
evenly over the top of the cake mix
cooking
bake (more heat on top than bottom) over embers or charcoal for 30 to 45 minutes, or until top is golden brown.
optional extras
spread brown sugar between layers and on top
spread thinly sliced almonds on top about 5 minutes before finished baking
Enjoy!
This is _almost_ fool proof. At one leadership training course, the quartermaster purchased pitted cherries and devils food cake mix! The result tasted much better than it looked.
Dump Cake Recipe
Open 1 (or two) cans of pie filling. Dump into a Dutch oven.
Take 1 (or two) boxes of cake mix. Dump in on top of the pie filling. Don't mix them up. They mix enough as they cook.
Place 2 or 3 pats of butter on top, sprinkle with cinamon (sp?) if you are feeling fancy.
Cover. Place about 15-20 charcole bricketts on top of the over, about 8-12 underneath. (the colder it is outside, the more you will need. Better to start plenty - you don't need to use them all)
Bake for 20 minutes, give or take.
Hints:
Line oven with aluminum foil and oil it. Saves a lot of cleanup time. Oil the Dutch oven also... the foil is bound to leak a little.
Don't overheat the bottom or you will burn the cake. Better too little than too much.
Use whatever cake and filling flavors that grab your fancy.
Enjoy.
I'm sending this to the list incase anybody else wanted the recipe. I just happen to have it here at work. You will need to modify the recipe for your Dutch Oven.
Dump Cake
Preheat oven to 350 (or have hot coals ready)
1 can of cherry pie filling
1 can of pinapple chunks
1 box of yellow cake mix
1 cup of butter (2 sticks)
1 can of coconut
Nuts (I don't remember the amount and i omit these)
Spread cherry pie filling into a 9 by 13 inch pan.
Spread pinapple chunks on top. (my recipe does not say if you use the juice but i do) spread cake mix on top.
Melt butter and pour on top. Top with coconut and nuts.
Bake for about 1 hour.
My own notes.
I use margrine instead of butter and only used about 1 3/4 sticks.
I use bagged coconut and use about a cup of it.
Here's the recipe for dump cake:
1 box of Yellow Cake Mix
1 Stick of Butter
1 Can of Fruit Pie Filling
In a 9x9 pan (9x13 might work), dump in the pie filling. On top of that, dump in the yellow cake mix. Then cut the butter up into small slices and place on the top. Bake at 350 degrees until top is brown (30 minutes?).
Sometimes I use two cans of filling or two sticks of butter. This is not exactly French cooking, so don't worry about exact proportions.
