Description

Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake is an easy-to-make dessert that combines the creamy richness of cheesecake with the sweet, fresh flavor of strawberries, topped with a golden, crisp cake crust. Perfect for any occasion, this no-mix, no-fuss recipe delivers a delicious and crowd-pleasing treat with minimal preparation.

Ingredients

Scale

Fruit Layer

  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, washed and sliced
  • 1/2 cup sugar (to toss with strawberries)

Cream Cheese Layer

  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

Cake Topping

  • 1 box yellow cake mix (about 15.25 oz)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold butter, sliced into thin pats

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberry Layer: Wash and slice fresh strawberries. Toss them lightly with sugar to enhance their natural sweetness and let sit while you prepare the other layers.
  2. Layer the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sugar, and sour cream or Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy. Spread this mixture evenly in the bottom of a greased baking dish.
  3. Add the Strawberries: Spread the sugared strawberries evenly over the cream cheese layer, ensuring the fruit is well distributed for consistent flavor.
  4. Top with Cake Mix and Butter: Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the fruit layer. Scatter the thin pats of cold butter over the cake mix to help create a golden, crisp topping while baking.
  5. Bake Until Golden and Bubbling: Place the pan into a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth, lump-free layer.
  • Don’t overmix the cream cheese layer to maintain the right texture.
  • Distribute butter evenly over the cake mix for a crisp crust.
  • Fresh strawberries are preferred over frozen for optimal flavor and texture.
  • Check the cake during the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent burning of the topping.
