Description
This Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake is an easy, crowd-pleasing dessert layered with sweet strawberry pie filling, creamy cheesecake, and a buttery cake topping. It’s the perfect lazy-day bake with big flavor and no fuss!
Ingredients
-
2 (21 oz) cans strawberry pie filling
-
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
-
1/3 cup granulated sugar
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
1 (15.25 oz) box white or yellow cake mix (dry)
-
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
-
1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
Instructions
1. Prep & Layer Fruit:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread both cans of strawberry pie filling evenly in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Add Cheesecake Layer:
In a mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
Dollop the cheesecake mixture over the strawberries and gently spread — it doesn’t need to be perfect as it will swirl during baking.
3. Top & Bake:
Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the entire surface.
Drizzle the melted butter over the cake mix, trying to moisten as much of it as possible.
Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs over the top for added crunch.
4. Bake & Serve:
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden and the edges are bubbly.
Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
For a richer version, use yellow cake mix and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. This dump cake can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
