  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

For the cream filling:

  • 1 package (8 oz / 225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the topping:

  • 1 can (21 oz / 595 g) cherry, blueberry, or pineapple pie filling
  • Optional garnish: shredded coconut, crushed graham crackers, or toasted almonds

Instructions

Bake the cake:

  1. Prepare the cake mix:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Prepare the cake batter according to the package instructions, adding vanilla extract if desired.
  2. Bake and cool:
    • Bake the cake as directed on the box. Once done, let the cake cool completely in the pan.

Make the cream filling:

  1. Whip the cream cheese:
    • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Add the powdered sugar:
    • Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until well combined.
  3. Whip the cream:
    • In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth.

Assemble the cake:

  1. Spread the cream filling:
    • Spread the cream mixture evenly over the cooled cake.
  2. Add the topping:
    • Spoon the pie filling evenly over the cream layer. Garnish with shredded coconut, crushed graham crackers, or toasted almonds, if desired.

Chill and serve:

  1. Refrigerate:
    • Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • For a tropical twist, use pineapple filling and top with toasted coconut.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • You can make the cake a day ahead to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
