Dump cake recipe anyone?

I came across a few recipes for dump cakes and they do look very easy to do with the kids. Seem to be geared maybe to the American market though. They all call for a pack of cake mix.
Has anyone tried something similar in the UK without a pack of cake mix? What could I use instead?

    Hi OP,
    Looking at recipes I'd say it's basically a crumble! Don't know if they have crumble in the US so maybe it's their perversion of the recipe...
    I'm not crazy about tinned fruit so would probably use fresh or frozen, then if you must use a mix, why not use a crumble mix?

    Thanks. Didn't think of that, but you're probably right. Crumble would do similar I suppose.
