Oh my goodness! This cake… it’s a masterpiece.
The name… well, Peaches and Cream Dump Cake is not the most glorious of names, but true to all “dump” cakes, this one is super easy and truly delicious!
There are a few reasons why I love dump cakes.
First of all, they’re crazy easy. No mixing needed! You just pile the ingredients into your cake pan and pop it in the oven!
Secondly – I love that I don’t have to make a frosting! Don’t get me wrong, I love frosting. But whenever I am asked to bring a dessert to a party or gathering, these dump cakes are first on my list of things to bring.
Now… this Peaches and Cream version is just PERFECT for those late summer BBQ’s.
It’s peach season!!
Peaches are at their peak, and using a handful of fresh peaches in a dump cake is just the smartest thing you could do.
We have two peach trees in our backyard so I am going through peach recipes like no one’s business. I LOVE IT!
So let’s talk about those glorious, brown sugar coated, cream cheese nuggets that I’ve added straight on top of my fresh peaches… OMG. It’s heaven.
Once all the cream cheese is added, sprinkle on a box of yellow cake mix and top it all with tiny pats of butter.
Then… because, why not, let’s add a nice layer of brown sugar…
The brown sugar and butter melt together and caramelize beautifully on top of the tender peaches and tiny bits of cream cheese.
The cake mix forms a cobbler-like crust on top, which is seriously to-die for!
Take this cake to a BBQ and just watch it disappear. Seriously!
Check out the little bits of cream cheese next to those peaches!
It’s sweet and creamy and just all around dreamy.
Plus easy!
Oh man, I am rhyming now…
What’s great about this cake is that it’s delicious both cold and warm. So if you have to make it ahead of time to take to a party you’re golden!
If you want it warm… you need to try it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top! Come to mama!
Seriously, you need to grab some peaches and make this! Stat!

- 8 oz. Cream Cheese, cut into small cubes (about 24)
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, divided

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9x13in dish with cooking spray.
