Ingredients
1 box yellow cake mix (or homemade yellow cake base)
½ cup melted butter
1 egg
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 can (21 oz) lemon pie filling
1 cup flour
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup butter, softened
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Mix cake mix with melted butter and egg until crumbly. Press half into the bottom of the dish to form a crust.
Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Spread evenly over the crust.
Spoon lemon pie filling over the cream layer.
In a bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over the top.
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Let cool before slicing into squares.
Notes
Use softened cream cheese for a smooth filling. Chill before slicing for clean layers. Try swapping lemon pie filling with blueberry or raspberry for variety.
