  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

  • In a bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drop spoonfuls over the strawberry layer.
  • Sprinkle the cake mix evenly over the top of the strawberry and cream cheese layers.
  • Drizzle melted butter evenly over the dry cake mix, ensuring most of it is covered.

  • Add optional chopped nuts for extra crunch.
  • Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  • Let cool for 10–15 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or chilled!

  • Best served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream on top.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
