Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • Spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Saucepan or bowl (for melting butter)

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cans of lemon pie filling
  • 2 packages of yellow cake mix
  • 1 package of cream cheese optional, for extra creaminess
  • 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
  • Whipped cream optional, for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven:

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Layer the Lemon Pie Filling:

  • Spread the lemon pie filling evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Add the Cake Mix:

  • Sprinkle both packages of yellow cake mix evenly over the lemon pie filling, covering it entirely.

Add Cream Cheese (Optional):

  • If you're using cream cheese, cut it into small cubes and scatter it across the cake mix for extra creaminess.

Pour Melted Butter:

  • Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the cake mix. Make sure it covers as much of the surface as possible to ensure a golden, crunchy topping.
  • Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  • Cool and Serve: Allow the lemon dump cake to cool slightly before serving. Top with whipped cream, if desired.
