Description
Red Velvet Cheesecake Bundt Dump Cake is a rich, crowd-pleasing dessert with the classic flavor of red velvet cake wrapped around a smooth cheesecake center. It is easy enough for casual baking but special enough for holidays, birthdays, and any gathering where you want a dessert that looks beautiful and tastes even better.
Ingredients
1 box red velvet cake mix
3 large eggs
1 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
8 ounces cream cheese softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips optional
2 tablespoons powdered sugar optional
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a Bundt pan very well.
2. In a large bowl, mix the red velvet cake mix, 3 eggs, water, and vegetable oil until smooth.
3. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese, granulated sugar, 1 egg, and vanilla extract until creamy and lump-free.
4. Pour about two-thirds of the red velvet batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
5. Spoon the cheesecake filling evenly over the batter, keeping it mostly centered.
6. Top with the remaining red velvet batter and sprinkle in the mini chocolate chips if using.
7. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the cake is set and a tester inserted into the cake portion comes out with moist crumbs.
8. Cool the cake in the pan for 15 to 20 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate.
9. Let the cake cool completely, then dust with powdered sugar before slicing if desired.
Notes
Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened so the cheesecake filling stays smooth.
Grease every curve of the Bundt pan well to help the cake release cleanly.
For the neatest slices, chill the cake before serving and use a sharp knife wiped clean between cuts.
