This cherry cheesecake dump cake recipe by Gene Stephens on YouTube is an easy recipe that uses pie filling and boxed cake mix for a quick dessert. It’s one of those recipes that you do dump and go without having any experience in baking. It’s a cheat dessert recipe for those that want a pie and a cobbler mixed into one. Plus a cheesecake because it has those flavors too. It’s incredible how this dessert only requires 4 ingredients to make and it’s an inexpensive dessert that I’m sure tastes amazing. You can choose any type of pie filling that you may prefer, and I love strawberries.
First, spray the baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and dump the pie filling into the dish. Then, scoop the whipped cream cheese with 2 spoons and dollop all over the cherry topping. Take a butter knife and cut up the scoops of cream cheese and swirl everything together.

Next, stir the cake mix with the melted butter. Once mix, take the cake mix and crumble it on top with your fingers. Bake in a preheated oven at 350F for about 45-55 minutes. Keep checking in for the desired color.
Overall, it’s an easy recipe if you like sweets. The pie filling looks like he used no sugar added, and it’s based on your preference. It’s a lazy person’s dessert because it’s fast and easy. I’ve been wanting to make a dump cake, but whenever I have the time to bake, I make everything from scratch. This type of dessert is for those that do not care about calories or carbs.
