A rich and gooey Strawberry Earthquake Cake made with strawberry cake mix, swirled cream cheese filling, and juicy strawberries. Perfectly messy, sweet, and irresistibly indulgent.
1 box strawberry cake mix (plus ingredients on box)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 cups powdered sugar
1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, sliced
1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
1/2 cup shredded coconut or chopped pecans (optional)
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Pour into pan.
Beat cream cheese, melted butter, and powdered sugar until smooth.
Drop spoonfuls of cream cheese mixture over the cake batter.
Scatter strawberries and chocolate chips over the top.
Swirl gently with a knife.
Bake 45–50 minutes until mostly set with gooey swirls.
Let cool 15–20 minutes before serving warm.
Use fresh strawberries for best flavor. Store leftovers in the fridge and reheat to enjoy warm.
