HISTORY OF CANTEEN CUPS PER WIKIPEDIA: "To complement the mess kit, soldiers used a stamped cup especially molded to fit over the bottom of the U.S. Army's standard one-quart (950 ml) canteen. This cup could be used as a boiling vessel, when boiling water for coffee, or for heating or reconstituting soup and other foods. During World War II, units preparing heated combat rations in the Meat Can Body or canteen cup mainly used locally procured combustible materials or Sterno fuel units of jellied alcohol. The latter could be stored within an issued folding stove for deployment when heating food, soup, or coffee in the field. After World War II, a specially-designed Esbit stove was issued to fit over the cup-and-canteen unit, similar to designs used in other armies."
Recipe for the Cherry Pineapple dump cake:
1 cup of pineapple chunks
Maraschino cherries to taste
1 cup cake mix
2 tbsp butter, cut in chunks
Put into the canteen cup, leveling as you go, space chunks of butter around the top.
Cover, and cook above hot coals - not open flame, if you have a closed lid, you can also put some coals on top of the canteen cup. Allow to bake for 20-30 minutes. Check, and take off of the heat when you notice the top is crispy on the edges. (it will be perfect in the middle)
