I loved this cake. I don't like coconut or any kind of nuts, so I coated the bottom with chocolate chips. SOOOO good. Frosting fell to the bottom, which made serving kind of difficult, but still great. Cooked for 60 minutes.

mm-mm! Delish!! I definitely must exercise now!! Worth the calories. From now on- will only make for a group to avoid going for seconds! I followed Sahmded54's advice- keep cream cheese mix one inch from the edge.

I made the cake as the recipe instructed except I omitted the pecans and I baked for 45 minutes. It was very quick and easy, delicious, and cheap (less than $5.00 with buy all the ingredients from Aldi and without the pecans).

I have been making this cake for years. I like to experiment with different cake mixes. The last one was made with a strawberry cake mix and chocolate chips instead of pecans. Vary it. Have fun with it. That's what cooking is all about. :)

Great cake. I make it using 1 1/2 c conf sugar. It's thick, but that's how I prefer it. I tried it using the whole amount, and it poured, but really ruined the look of the cake (still tasted great). Plus it's not the same texture, so with so much cream cheese it makes the whole cake seemed undercooked. Instead I dollup it across the cake, and then marble it. Small parts sink in, and then the rest looks like cracks across the top... just like an earthquake :-). Bake it 30 min. It looks a little jiggly where the cream cheese is, but I take it out anyway. Once it cools a bit, it's perfect!!

Excellent! I made it as stated BUT only used a dark chocolate cake mix, 1 ½ c of confectioners sugar and pecans in place of the walnuts. Plus, when I severed it I poured some thinned down chocolate frosting over the top of each piece. It was a BIG hit and I know I will be making this again and again.

This cake received rave reviews at the potluck where it was served (especially with the teenagers). I, on the other hand, wasn't that impressed with it! Most of the coconut was left on the bottom of the pan; it doesn't meld into the batter at all, so I was left wondering what was the point of that? It's OK, and I wasn't embarrassed to have brought it along, but I don't think I'd make it again.

I had a recipe for Earthquake Cake but lost it. Once again, Allrecipes.com came through for me! I made the recipe as directed except that I used light cream cheese. I don't know if it was that or I just needed a deeper pan, but my "earthquake" was more like a volcano with cream cheese oozing out of the pan on both sides! Nonetheless it was delicious.

Ohmygosh. This is so rich, so easy to make and so good. I used a Chocolate Fudge cake mix, melted the butter and softened the cream cheese. I still had to blop on the cream cheese mixture rather than pour it on, but the results were so yummy. I baked it for 40 minutes which was ample time in my oven. It is very gooey the first day. It tasted even better the second day.

This is almost exactly like the recipe I have but for some reason, I can never get this cake to cook all the way. Definitely needs to cook for 45-50 minutes. Fabulous cake if you don't mind the gooeyness.

I love this cake. After making it a few times I baked it about 60 minutes and I would suggest when putting the cream cheese layer on the cake you should keep it at least 1" from the sides of the pan so it doesn't pour over the sides. I also melted the butter and softened the cream cheese. I also like to use Devils Food Cake. I have not seen anyone that didn't like this cake.
