Lemon Cream Cheese Dump Cake

Bright, creamy, and impossibly easy—this is dessert, perfected for real life. With just 5 humble ingredients and one dish, it’s the kind of treat that fills the house with the scent of butter and citrus while you sip iced tea, fold laundry, or chat with a friend. The lemon pie filling brings zesty sweetness; the cream cheese adds rich, tangy depth; the cake mix and butter create a golden, crumbly topping that’s crisp at the edges and soft in the center.


✨ Best of all? It’s naturally make-ahead, freezer-friendly, and always a crowd-pleaser.

“Dump, bake, and serve joy.”
