EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!

CAKE! That is.....
 A gaping maw of gooey cream cheese, pulsating from this chunk of Earthquake Cake......

INGREDIENTS:
1 package devil's food cake mix              1/2 cup margarine or butter
                                                                  8 ounces cream cheese
1 cup flaked coconut                                  2 cups icing sugar
1 cup chopped pecans                                1 tsp vanilla extract
 1. Sprinkle coconut and pecans over 13 x 9 inch greased pan.
 2. Mix up cake batter according to pkg directions, and pour over ingredients already in pan.
 3. Melt butter with cream cheese. Nuke in microwave about 30 seconds or so, just to soften. Mix up with vanilla and sugar. Beat well.
 4. Spoon dollops over batter in pan. Bake at 325 degrees  for 50 minutes (check part way thru to see how the batter is cooking).
Note: this could be made without the coconut or pecans, or even the cream cheese. I am not a huge fan of any ofthose ingreients, but the cake is interesting, and freezes great. You could replace the coconut and pecans with chocolate chips, and the cream cheese......that would be nice. Chocolate and more chocolate.
