Strawberry Dump Cake is an easy, no-mix dessert with layers of sweet strawberry filling, cake mix, and butter. Baked to golden perfection, it’s a simple, crowd-pleasing treat that tastes like a mix between cobbler and cake.

Ingredients

  • 2 cans (21 oz each) strawberry pie filling or 4 cups fresh strawberries mixed with 1/2 cup sugar and 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow or white cake mix
  • 3/4 cup (1.5 sticks) unsalted butter, melted or sliced thinly
  • Optional: 1 tsp vanilla or almond extract
  • Optional toppings: 1/2 cup chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Spread the strawberry pie filling (or homemade strawberry mix) evenly in the bottom of the dish.
  3. Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the filling.
  4. Drizzle melted butter over the cake mix, covering as much surface as possible. If using sliced butter, lay it evenly across the top.
  5. Add optional toppings like nuts, coconut, or white chocolate chips if desired.
  6. Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the top is golden and the edges are bubbly.
  7. Let cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.

Notes

  • Use fresh strawberries with sugar and cornstarch for a more homemade version.
  • Try chocolate or lemon cake mix for fun variations.
  • Add crushed pineapple with strawberries for a tropical twist.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Can be frozen for up to 2 months.
