Coffee Cheesecake Dump Cake Recipe
Equipment
- 1 9" x 13" baking dish or pan
- 1 medium mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 1 box vanilla cake mix
- 2 packets instant coffee or 2 tbsp instant espresso
- 2 cups brewed coffee cooled
- 2 8-ounce packages cream cheese softened
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips optional, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, combine the instant coffee with the brewed coffee and stir until dissolved. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the sweetened condensed milk, eggs, vanilla extract, sour cream, and sugar. Mix until creamy and well-combined.
- Dump the coffee mixture into the baking dish, followed by the dry vanilla cake mix. Do not stir!
- Carefully pour the cheesecake mixture over the top of the cake mix layer. Smooth it out gently with a spatula.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the top, and if you like a little extra sweetness, sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top.
- Pop the dish in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden and the cheesecake layer is set.
- Let the dump cake cool slightly before serving. For extra pizzazz, add a dollop of whipped cream on top!
