Ingredients
  

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 21 oz lemon pie filling can
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  • In a large bowl, combine the yellow cake mix and melted butter. Mix with a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Spread half of the crumb mixture evenly over the bottom of the baking dish and press it down to form a base.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together softened cream cheese and lemon pie filling until smooth.
  • Pour the lemon cream cheese filling over the crumb base and spread evenly.
  • Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the filling layer.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, until golden on top and set in the center.
  • Let the cake cool slightly before slicing. Optional: dust with powdered sugar or add whipped cream.

Notes

For extra flavor, garnish with fresh berries or a lemon glaze. The filling has cream cheese, so refrigerate leftovers, covered, within 2 hours.
