Peanut Butter Earthquake Cake with Creamy Swirls

3️⃣ Peanut Butter Swirls

1. Lightly heat the peanut butter (10–15 seconds in the microwave is sufficient).This softens it just enough for smooth drizzling without thinning it too much.
2. Drizzle thin ribbons over the dessert.Let the peanut butter fall naturally across the surface for best swirl distribution.
3. Gently swirl with a toothpick or knife to create « earthquake » swirls.Move in loose, curved motions. Avoid overmixing—distinct swirls give the best appearance and pockets of flavor.

4️⃣ Add Chocolate

• Sprinkle chocolate chunks and peanut butter chocolates on top.The heat of the oven will partially melt them, adding bursts of chocolate in every bite.

5️⃣ Baking

• Bake at 350°F (170°C) for 35–45 minutes.The top will develop natural cracks and bubbling spots—this is the signature earthquake look.
• The center may remain slightly soft—this is characteristic of Earthquake Cake.The middle should jiggle lightly but not be fully liquid.

6️⃣ Resting
