Description
Indulge in a delightful Strawberry Dump Cake, a simple yet delicious dessert combining the sweetness of strawberries with a rich cream cheese layer and fluffy cake on top.
Ingredients
Scale
- 31.5 ounces strawberry pie filling (two 15.75-ounce cans)
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 package vanilla cake mix (or white cake mix)
- ½ cup salted butter (cold)
- fresh strawberries (whole or halved for optional serving)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Spread the strawberry filling from both cans in the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sour cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Scoop dollops of the cream cheese mixture across the surface of the strawberry filling. Try to spread the cream cheese a little bit so that the surface of the dump cake is as even as possible.
- Sprinkle the cake mix evenly over the strawberry and cream cheese layers.
- Slice very thin pats of butter and spread over the entire top of the dry cake mix. Cover as much of the cake mix as possible.
- Bake about 40 to 45 minutes until the topping is browned, even in the center, and the strawberry filling is bubbling up from the bottom.
- Serve warm or cooled.
Notes
- Fresh strawberries can be used for additional garnish when serving.
- For a healthier version, consider using a sugar-free cake mix or pie filling.
