Tropical Dump Cake

This is a very moist, fruity cake made with yellow cake mix. I like to use cherry pie filling, pineapple chunks, coconut and walnuts; but any like substitutions could be made. The cake turns a pretty pink color due to the cherry pie filling and smells heavenly while baking. I like it best chilled and topped with homemade whipped cream.
