0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
0.5 cup milk

2. Spread the strawberry pie filling evenly across the bottom of the dish.
3. Distribute the cream cheese cubes over the filling.
4. Sprinkle the granulated sugar over the top, then drizzle the vanilla extract.
5. Evenly cover the top with the dry cake mix.
6. Pour the melted butter and milk over the surface, trying to cover all dry areas.
