Steps to Make Your Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake
Alright, now let’s get this cake in the oven so we can feast! Follow these simple steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Get your baking dish ready; a 9×13 inch one works perfectly!
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Seriously, it should be creamy and dreamy; you could almost spread it on toast!
- Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until everything is well-combined. Give it a little taste—because quality control is essential, right?
- Spread the strawberry pie filling evenly across the bottom of your prepared baking dish.
- Carefully pour the creamy cheesecake mixture over the strawberry filling. Don’t worry if it looks a bit messy; we’re embracing the “dump” in Dump Cake!
- Now, prepare the cake mix according to the package instructions in a separate bowl. Pour the melted butter into the mix and stir until just combined.
- Spread the cake batter over the cheesecake layer. Make it pretty; it’s okay to get a little artsy!
- Finally, top the cake with your fresh strawberry slices for that beautiful finishing touch.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown. Your kitchen will smell like a heavenly bakery, and your neighbors might just want to drop by for a taste!
