Earthquake Cake

This version of German Chocolate cake is requested at all family gatherings. So amazing!

Coconut

1 C. Chopped Nuts

1 German Chocolate Cake Mix

1 Stick Butter (Soft)

1 Pound Powdered Sugar

1-8oz Cream Cheese (Soft)

Cool Whip

Preheat oven to 350°.

1.     Grease a 9 X 13 X 2 pan heavily with Crisco .

2.     Cover bottom with coconut and nuts.

3.     Prepare cake mix as directed on package.

4.     Pour mixed cake over coconuts and nuts in pan.

5.     Combine butter, powered sugar, and cream cheese until smooth. (It helps to melt the butter and cream cheese a bit first in the microwave-20 sec.)

6.     Spoon over cake mix without mixing in (I do marble it-pull it through the batter with a knife).

7.     Bake for 1 hour.

8.     Serve warm with whip cream or ice cream.
