Description
Ultimate Strawberry Earthquake Cake is a delicious dessert that combines a moist strawberry cake with a creamy cream cheese layer and delightful toppings.
Ingredients
- 1 box strawberry cake mix
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- ½ cup chopped strawberries
- ½ cup shredded sweetened coconut, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, milk, and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Fold in the chopped strawberries.
- Spread the strawberry cake batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Beat the softened cream cheese and melted butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla, mixing until creamy.
- Spoon dollops of the cream cheese mixture over the cake batter. Gently swirl it into the batter with a knife, creating a marbled effect. Don’t overmix.
- Sprinkle the white chocolate chips, chopped strawberries, and coconut over the top.
- Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly soft and gooey.
- Let the cake cool for at least 20–30 minutes before slicing. The center will firm up as it cools.
- Serve warm or chilled for a rich, gooey strawberry dessert.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, use fresh strawberries.
- Optional coconut can add a nice texture and flavor.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
