Ingredients
- 1 (15.25 ounce) box white or yellow cake mix
- Ingredients called for on cake mix box (typically water, oil, eggs)
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled and quartered (if large)
- Optional: 1 tsp vanilla extract (for cake batter)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- Prepare cake mix according to package directions, adding vanilla extract if desired. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
- In a medium bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk until well combined and creamy.
- Evenly dollop the cream cheese mixture over the cake batter. Scatter strawberries over the cream cheese layer.
- Using a knife or skewer, gently swirl through the layers to create an ‘earthquake’ effect.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until edges are golden and a skewer inserted into a cakey part comes out with moist crumbs. The center will still be jiggly.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving for optimal gooeyness.
