4.8 from 62 reviews

This Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake is an easy, no-fuss dessert combining the fruity sweetness of strawberry pie filling with creamy cheesecake flavors and a moist cake topping. Ideal for quick baking, it features layers of strawberry filling, rich cream cheese, and a buttery cake mix baked until golden and bubbly.

Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 1 (21 oz) can strawberry pie filling

Cheesecake Layer

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Cake Topping

  • 1 box strawberry cake mix (approximately 15.25 oz)
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s at the right temperature for baking the dump cake evenly.
  2. Prepare Filling: Spread the entire can of strawberry pie filling evenly in the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish. This forms the juicy base of your dessert.
  3. Make Cheesecake Layer: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. This layer adds a rich, tangy contrast to the sweet strawberries.
  4. Assemble Layers: Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the strawberry pie filling. Next, sprinkle the dry strawberry cake mix evenly over the cream cheese dollops.
  5. Add Butter: Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the cake mix. This helps create a moist, golden crust as it bakes.
  6. Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and golden brown. This ensures the cake is cooked through and full of flavor.
  7. Serve: Allow to cool slightly, then serve warm or chilled according to your preference for a delicious dessert.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cream cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • You can swap strawberry cake mix with yellow or white cake mix for a different flavor.
  • Serving the cake warm enhances the creamy texture, while chilling it allows the layers to set further.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For added texture, sprinkle chopped nuts or shredded coconut over the top before baking.
