Dolly Parton's Dump Cake

Teresa M's Note:

Found this in a magazine. Easy, delicious, kind of a cross between a cobbler and cake, and only 5 ingredients. Original directions dId not specify size cans and boxes, and use butter, but Recipezaar requires you add sizes of each boxes and cans, which I did, but we use margarine, up to you if you prefer butter or margarine.

Something is terribly wrong with this recipe! I tried it exactly as written and it was a disaster. After resting for 20 minutes I cut into it and cake on bottom was still dry , as if still right out of the box........was able to salvage top part served with ice cream, but I'm thinking (as in other dump cakes) mix should go on top with butter on top of that. I don't think Dolly Parton would want her name associated with this recipe.
