Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 box (15.25 ounces / 432 grams) yellow or vanilla cake mix
- 1 can (21 ounces / 595 grams) strawberry pie filling
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 12 cup (1 stick / 113 grams) unsalted butter, melted
Liquid Ingredients:
- 1 can (14 ounces / 397 grams) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Garnish:
- Fresh strawberries
- Powdered sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the oven at 350°F and coat a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray.
- Create a vibrant base by distributing strawberry pie filling uniformly across the dish’s surface.
- Craft the creamy cheesecake layer by whisking cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract until silky and well-integrated.
- Gently cascade the cheesecake mixture over the strawberry foundation, ensuring even coverage.
- Liberally dust the entire surface with dry cake mix, allowing it to rest undisturbed without mixing.
- Generously drizzle melted butter across the cake mix, aiming to maximize coverage and create potential crispy edges.
- Transfer the assembled dessert to the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes until the top transforms into a golden, bubbling landscape.
- Allow the cake to rest and settle for a minimum of 15 minutes after removing from the oven.
- Optional: Embellish with fresh strawberry slices and a delicate snowfall of powdered sugar before serving.
- Indulge immediately while warm, or chill for a refreshing dessert experience. Consider accompanying with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or billowy whipped cream for ultimate decadence.
Notes
- Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for smooth, lump-free mixing.
- Use full-fat cream cheese for richer, more decadent cheesecake layer texture.
- Swap regular cake mix with gluten-free yellow cake mix for celiac-friendly dessert.
- Reduce sweetness by using reduced-sugar pie filling and low-fat cream cheese for lighter version.
