The process involves combining a lemon pie filling, a cream cheese mixture, and a dry cake mix in a baking dish without traditional mixing techniques. The dessert is then baked until set, resulting in a layered, cobbler-like texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why You\u2019ll Love This Recipe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The preparation method requires minimal steps and no advanced baking skills. All components are layered directly in the baking pan, simplifying the process and reducing cleanup. The combination of tart lemon filling, rich cream cheese, and a sweet cake topping creates a contrast of flavors and textures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2 cans (approximately 21 ounces each) of lemon pie filling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 package (8 ounces) of cream cheese, softened<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 box (approximately 15.25 ounces) of dry yellow or lemon cake mix<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Optional: 1 tablespoon of lemon zest<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step by Step Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Preheat the oven.<\/strong>\u00a0Set the oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Prepare the first layer.<\/strong>\u00a0Spread the lemon pie filling evenly into the bottom of a 9\u00d713-inch baking dish.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add the cream cheese.<\/strong>\u00a0In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Dot the cream cheese over the layer of lemon pie filling in small spoonfuls.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add the cake mix.<\/strong>\u00a0Sprinkle the entire box of dry cake mix evenly over the lemon and cream cheese layers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add the butter.<\/strong>\u00a0Slice the cold butter into thin pats. Distribute the butter pats evenly to cover the top of the cake mix as much as possible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bake.<\/strong>\u00a0Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly at the edges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cool.<\/strong>\u00a0Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool on a wire rack. The dessert will thicken as it cools.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I use a different pie filling?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. Other pie fillings, such as cherry or apple, can be substituted for the lemon filling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why is the top of my cake mix powdery?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A powdery top indicates that the butter did not fully cover the cake mix. For more complete coverage, the butter can be melted and drizzled over the top instead of using pats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can I use a different cake mix flavor?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. A white or vanilla cake mix can be used. A lemon cake mix will intensify the lemon flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Must Know<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The dessert is not a traditional cake with a uniform crumb. It bakes into a layered dessert with a cobbler or crisp-like topping. The cream cheese will not mix in smoothly but will create distinct pockets within the dessert. Do not stir the ingredients after they are layered in the pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storage Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap or transfer leftovers to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. This dessert is typically served warm or at room temperature. Reheat individual portions in a microwave if desired.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About This Recipe This recipe describes a method for preparing a dessert known as a dump cake.
