Description

This Rhubarb Cream Cheese Dump Cake is the easiest way to enjoy the sweet-tart magic of rhubarb. With just four simple ingredients and no mixing bowls, this dreamy dessert bakes up golden, creamy, and full of flavor. Perfect for spring and summer gatherings!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups chopped rhubarb
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 box yellow cake mix (dry)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Base: Start by greasing a 9×13-inch baking dish, then spread the chopped rhubarb out evenly in the bottom.
  2. Sprinkle the Sugar: Generously sprinkle the granulated sugar over the rhubarb. This will help draw out that delightful tartness.
  3. Add the Cake Mix: Next, evenly sprinkle the dry yellow cake mix over the sweetened rhubarb layer.
  4. Dot with Cream Cheese: Take spoonfuls of softened cream cheese and drop them evenly across the cake mix layer. Don’t worry about being too precise — a little rustic charm is a good thing!
  5. Bake it Up: Pop your creation into a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for about 50–55 minutes, or until the top is golden and the filling is bubbly.
  6.  Cool and Serve: Let it cool slightly before enjoying. Savor your warm treat on its own or at room temperature for a lovely dessert experience!
