This strawberry cream cheese dump cake is the ultimate easy dessert. Sweet-tart strawberry filling is swirled with a sweet cream cheese layer and topped with a buttery golden cake mix crust for maximum comfort with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 (21 oz) cans strawberry pie filling
  • 1 (8 oz) block full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 (15.25 oz) box yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. Pour strawberry pie filling into the dish and spread evenly.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese, 1/3 cup sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of cream cheese mixture over the strawberry layer. Use a knife to gently swirl it into the strawberries.
  5. Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the top. Do not stir. Sprinkle oats evenly over cake mix if using.
  6. Slowly and evenly drizzle the melted butter over the entire surface of the dry cake mix.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, until topping is deep golden brown and filling is bubbling at edges.
  8. Let cool for 20-30 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

For best results, ensure cream cheese is fully softened. Do not mix the dry cake mix into the filling. The cake can be stored covered at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerated for 4-5 days.
