Ingredients
1 box (15.25 oz) strawberry cake mix
2 cans (21 oz each) strawberry pie filling
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
Spread the strawberry pie filling evenly on the bottom of the prepared pan.
In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Dollop spoonfuls of cream cheese evenly over the pie filling.
Sprinkle the dry strawberry cake mix evenly over the cream cheese layer.
Drizzle melted butter over the cake mix, covering as much surface as possible.
Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs evenly across the top.
Bake for 45–50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and edges are bubbly.
Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh strawberries, if desired.
Notes
For added crunch, stir 1/2 cup chopped walnuts into the graham cracker topping before baking.
Swap canned pie filling for sweetened fresh strawberries for a lighter version.
Delicious served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat gently before serving.
