Here’s an easy, crowd-pleasing dessert with almost no prep:
4-Ingredient Lemon Cream Cheese Dump Cake 🍋
Ingredients
- 1 box lemon cake mix
- 1 can (21 oz) lemon pie filling
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread the lemon pie filling evenly in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Drop spoonfuls of cream cheese over the filling (no need to spread perfectly).
- Sprinkle the dry lemon cake mix evenly over the top.
- Drizzle melted butter evenly across the cake mix (cover as much surface as possible).
- Bake for 40–45 minutes, until golden brown and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Optional Add-Ons (if you want to level it up)
- Fresh lemon zest
- Powdered sugar dusting
- Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream
- A handful of white chocolate chips
It’s sweet, tangy, creamy, and crisp on top — with almost zero mixing required.
If you’d like, I can also give you a strawberry or blueberry version using the same 4-ingredient method.
