Description
Strawberry Dump Cake is the ultimate easy dessert, made with just a handful of ingredients. A buttery golden topping rests over gooey strawberry pie filling, baked to bubbly perfection.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans (21 oz each) strawberry pie filling
- 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
- 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, thinly sliced
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Pour the strawberry pie filling into a 9×13 baking dish. Stir in vanilla extract if using.
- Spread the filling evenly across the bottom of the dish.
- Sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix evenly over the top. Do not stir.
- Arrange thin slices of butter evenly across the surface of the cake mix.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes until golden brown and bubbling at the edges.
- Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream if desired.
Notes
