  • Total Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (21 oz) can lemon pie filling
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, sliced
  • 1 (15.25 oz) box yellow cake mix
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  2. Arrange the cream cheese slices evenly over the lemon filling.
  3. Evenly sprinkle the yellow cake mix over the cream cheese layer. Do not stir.
  4. Pour the melted butter evenly over the cake mix. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until golden brown.

Notes

  • Use room-temperature cream cheese for easier slicing.
  • For extra lemon flavor, add 1 tsp of lemon zest to the pie filling.
  • Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent twist.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
