Description

This Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake is an effortless dessert with layers of juicy strawberries, rich cheesecake filling, and a golden buttery cake topping. With just a few simple ingredients, you can whip up this sweet treat in no time—perfect for potlucks, parties, or an easy weeknight dessert!


Ingredients

Units Scale

1 (21 oz) can strawberry pie filling

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 (15.25 oz) box yellow or white cake mix

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries (optional, for extra fruitiness)

1 cup crushed graham crackers (optional, for a crunchy topping)

Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Spread the strawberry pie filling evenly in the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle the fresh strawberries on top (if using).
  3. Make the cheesecake layer: In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drop spoonfuls over the strawberry layer.
  4. Add the cake mix: Evenly sprinkle the dry cake mix over the cheesecake and strawberry layers.
  5. Drizzle melted butter evenly over the top, ensuring most of the cake mix is moistened.
  6. Optional: Sprinkle crushed graham crackers on top for extra crunch.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  8. Cool slightly, then serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Cake Mix Options: Yellow, white, or even strawberry cake mix work well.

Cheesecake Layer Tip: For extra creaminess, add an extra 4 oz of cream cheese.

Make It Extra Fruity: Add sliced fresh strawberries between the layers for a fresh fruit boost.

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
