Description

This Lemon Cream Cheese Dump Cake is the ultimate fuss-free dessert! With just four ingredients, it combines the bright tang of lemon pie filling, the creamy richness of cream cheese, and a golden, buttery cake topping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (16 oz) lemon pie filling
  • 1 package (15 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 4 oz cream cheese, cubed
  • 1/2 cup butter, sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  • Spread the lemon pie filling evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  • Sprinkle the dry cake mix over the lemon pie filling, ensuring it is evenly distributed. Do not stir.
  • Scatter the cubed cream cheese evenly across the top of the cake mix.
  • Place the slices of butter evenly over the top of the cream cheese and cake mix.
  • Bake for 40–50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  • Let the cake cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For an extra citrus kick, sprinkle fresh lemon zest on top before baking.
  • Try swapping yellow cake mix for white or lemon cake mix for a flavor twist.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
