Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cans 15 oz each strawberry pie filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 package vanilla cake mix
  • ½ cup 1 stick salted butter, cold and sliced
  • Fresh strawberries optional, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.
  2. Prepare the Baking Dish: Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
  3. Layer the Strawberry Filling: Spread the strawberry pie filling evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  4. Make the Cheesecake Mixture: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, egg, and granulated sugar until smooth. Dollop the mixture over the strawberry filling and spread gently to cover.
  5. Add the Cake Mix: Sprinkle the vanilla cake mix evenly over the cheesecake layer, ensuring the entire surface is covered.
  6. Top with Butter: Distribute the sliced cold butter evenly over the cake mix. The butter will melt during baking to create a golden, crispy topping.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
  8. Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool for about 15 minutes. Garnish with fresh strawberries if desired, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For best results, use high-quality strawberry pie filling and ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth mixture.
  • Customize the cake by swapping strawberry pie filling for cherry, blueberry, or apple filling.
  • Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
