I recently made my own version of Earthquake Cakes and I'm so happy how they turned out.  It started with a Red Velvet Earthquake Cake then a Pumpkin Earthquake Cake and now this Chocolate Fudge Earthquake Cake.  They are so simple to make and so delicious!  The combination of sweetened cream cheese, butter, chocolate chips and coconut go together perfectly then it's swirled into a rich chocolate fudge mix and baked into one beautiful cake!

  2. I love the idea of this cake but i really hate shredded coconut! What do you think about substituting mini marshmallows or peanut butter chips?

    1. You can leave out the coconut or substitute with the marshmallows or peanut butter chips; both sound delicious!
