  • Pressure Cook: Secure the lid and ensure the knob is turned to the sealing position. Choose the pressure cook/manual button, high pressure, and set the timer for 40 minutes.
  • Cool: When the time is up, remove the pan to a rack and remove the foil. Let the dump cake stand for about 10 minutes.

Notes

* How to Make a Foil Sling
  1. Tear off a long piece of foil, about 20 inches or so.
  2. Center the baking dish on the foil strip and use the 2 ends as handles to lower the dish into the Instant Pot.
  3. Fold or tuck the handles down along the sides of the pot so they don't interfere with the lid.
  4. When done, use the sling to lift the baking dish out of the pot.
