How to make the Strawberry Cheesecake Dump Cake:

Dump Cakes are really simple to make. Kind of like a slow cooker recipe, you dump your ingredients into the baking dish and then bake. There is a little more work than just dumping though on this recipe. Spread your strawberry pie filling on the bottom of the baking dish. Mix together the ingredients for the cheesecake filling and then spread it on top of the strawberry pie filling. Mix together the topping ingredients and then spread that on top. Bake and enjoy!
