Why wait any longer? This dessert is perfect at any time. Go through your food storage and gather all the ingredients we need.
There is a certain amount of skill involved in the addition of these four ingredients to your baking dish, even though they are essentially only added. First, coat the bottom of the dish with the lemon pie filling. Then, sprinkle half of the cake mix on top. The exciting part begins now; to ensure that your cake mix is evenly coated, cube the cream cheese and finely slice the butter.
After the pie filling is added, distribute the cream cheese cubes equally over the surface. Finally, sprinkle the leftover cake mix on top. Next, use your thinly sliced butter to cover the cake mix, covering most of it if not all of it, by spreading it out evenly over the top.
The next step is to place the baking dish in the oven. As the cake bakes, the melted butter will soak into the dry cake mix, adding moisture and enhancing the flavor. After it’s baked, you’ll get a sweet and sour dessert with cream cheese pockets that complement the lemon flavor.
You best believe this stuff is truly, insanely amazing! If you’ve ever made dump cakes before, you’ll know that you simply have to trust in the magic of the process.
What is needed
Lemon pie filling, one 16-oz. can
One fifteen-ounce container of yellow cake mix
4 ounces of cubed cream cheese
—1/2 cup, or 1 stick a little amount of unsalted butter
GETTING READY
Arrange a square baking dish with a little butter or non-stick spray and set the oven to 350º F.
Make care to distribute the lemon pie filling to the corners of a greased baking dish before pouring it into the bottom.
Evenly distribute the cubed cream cheese over the half-batch cake, then top with the remaining cake mix.
Spread the cake batter evenly with a single layer of butter pats, being sure to cover most of the cake’s surface with the thinly cut pats.
To ensure a clean toothpick comes out when put in the middle, bake the baking dish for 35 to 40 minutes.
Allow it cool for fifteen to twenty minutes after taking out of oven.
