Ingredients:

1. Prepare the strawberry cake mix according to package instructions and bake in two round cake pans. Let cool.

5. Place the second cake layer on top and cover with the remaining cream cheese mixture. Garnish with more sliced strawberries.
6. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.
