Chocolate Peanut Butter Earthquake Cake is a decadent dessert that combines the rich flavors of chocolate and peanut butter in a moist, gooey cake that’s sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. This cake gets its name from the “earthquake” effect created by the cream cheese and peanut butter dollops that sink into the batter and bake up with a cracked, uneven surface, resembling seismic activity. Here’s how to make it:

Ingredients:

For the Cake:

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix (and the ingredients required to make it, usually water, eggs, and oil)
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
