Creamy Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake in Just Minutes
Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake is a quick and easy dessert that combines the creamy richness of cheesecake with the fruity sweetness of strawberries. With just a handful of ingredients, it’s the perfect dessert for potlucks, gatherings, or a last-minute treat.
Ingredients
- 1 package 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 can 21 oz strawberry pie filling
- 1 box 15.25 oz white or yellow cake mix
- 1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup milk optional, for a creamier filling
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries sliced (optional for garnish)
- Whipped cream optional for serving
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Prepare the Cheesecake Mixture: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Add milk if you want a slightly thinner consistency.
- Assemble the Dump Cake:
- Spread the strawberry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Drop dollops of the cream cheese mixture over the strawberry filling and gently swirl it using a knife or spatula.
- Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the top of the filling and cream cheese.
- Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the dry cake mix, ensuring most of the mix is moistened.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
- Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream if desired.
Notes
- For a twist, use a strawberry and rhubarb filling or add a layer of fresh strawberries underneath the cream cheese mixture.
- You can substitute the white cake mix with a vanilla or butter pecan flavor for a different taste.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for a warm treat.
- This dessert is delicious on its own but pairs wonderfully with vanilla ice cream.
