Strawberry Shortcake Earthquake Cake (Creamy, Fruity, and Irresistibly Gooey)

5. Bake

10. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the center is just set and the edges are golden brown. The cake may have cracks and soft spots — that’s the signature “earthquake” look!
11. Let cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes. The cake will firm up as it cools.

6. Serve

• Serve warm, room temperature, or chilled.
• Top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
• Garnish with fresh strawberries before serving, if desired.

Tips & Storage

• Storage: Cover and refrigerate leftovers for up to 4 days. Best enjoyed within 2–3 days for maximum flavor and texture.
• Want more berry flavor? Add a swirl of strawberry jam along with the fresh berries before baking.
• No fresh berries? Use well-drained strawberry pie filling or frozen strawberries that have been thawed and patted dry.

Sweet, creamy, fruity, and full of texture — this Strawberry Shortcake Earthquake Cake is as fun to look at as it is to eat!
