Description
A simple and quick dessert that combines layers of strawberry pie filling, cream cheese, cake mix, and melted butter for a cozy treat that’s impossible to mess up.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 can strawberry pie filling (about 21 ounces)
- 1 box yellow cake mix (15.25 ounces)
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened (Let it sit out for 15-20 minutes for easier use.)
- 1 stick butter (half cup), melted (Real butter is preferred for best flavor.)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (Optional but recommended.)
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Spray a 9 by 13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Spread the strawberry pie filling evenly in the bottom of the dish.
- Dot the cream cheese all over the pie filling.
- Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly across the top. Do not stir.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the cake mix as evenly as possible.
Baking
- Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until the top looks golden and the edges are bubbling.
- Let it cool for at least 15 minutes before scooping.
Notes
Let the cream cheese soften before adding it to the pie filling for a smoother bake. Can be served with ice cream or whipped cream for an extra special treat.
