Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to ensure your cake comes out easily and doesn’t stick.
-
Spread the strawberry pie filling evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. The vibrant red of the strawberries creates a beautiful base for our tremendous cake.
-
In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy. The cream cheese adds a luscious quality that enhances the dessert.
-
Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the pie filling, gently spreading it around but leaving some strawberry filling visible. This layering helps to create a delightful contrast in flavors and textures.
-
Evenly sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix over the cream cheese and strawberry layer, ensuring it covers the entire surface for uniform baking.
-
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the cake mix. This step encourages a tremendous golden crust to form, adding extra richness to your dessert.
-
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling. Keep an eye on it towards the end of the baking time for that perfect golden finish.
-
Let the cake cool to room temperature before serving. This cooling time helps the layers set perfectly. Garnish with fresh strawberries if desired for a beautiful presentation.
