# Step-by-Step Instructions:
01 -

02 -
Pour the strawberry pie filling evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Dot the softened cream cheese over the strawberry layer in small spoonfuls. Spread gently with a spatula to create pockets without fully mixing.
04 -
Evenly sprinkle the dry vanilla cake mix over the cream cheese and strawberry layers without stirring.
05 -
Pour the melted butter evenly over the dry cake mix to moisten as much surface area as possible for a golden crust.
06 -
Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbling. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
07 -
Serve warm, optionally topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries. Refrigerate leftovers up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
