Ingredients
  

For the Strawberries
  • 2 cups sliced strawberries let them sit with sugar for 10 minutes
For the Cheesecake Layer
  • 8 oz cream cheese substitute with plant-based cream cheese for a vegan option
  • 1 cup granulated sugar divided (1/4 cup for strawberries, 3/4 cup for cheesecake)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract no substitutions necessary
For the Cake Batter
  • 15.25 oz yellow cake mix substitute with gluten-free cake mix for a gluten-free version
  • 1/2 cup melted butter can be substituted with oil for a lighter option
  • 1 cup milk substitute with almond, soy, or oat milk for a dairy-free version
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt enhances flavor balance

Equipment

  • mixing bowls
  • electric mixer
  • 9x13-inch baking dish

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with 1/4 cup of granulated sugar. Stir gently and let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes.
  3. In a separate mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, remaining 3/4 cup of sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  4. In another bowl, mix the yellow cake mix, melted butter, milk, and a pinch of salt until just combined.
  5. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Start layering by pouring half of the cake batter into the dish, followed by the cheesecake mixture, marinated strawberries, and remaining cake batter.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
