# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish to ensure the cake does not stick.

In a medium bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, melted butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Drop spoonfuls of the cream cheese mixture over the cake batter in the baking dish, spreading them out slightly. Sprinkle the coconut flakes and white chocolate chips evenly over the top.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes or until the cake is set and the edges are golden brown.

Allow the cake to cool completely. Admire the cracked, earthquake-like appearance on top before serving.

For best results, ensure that the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the mixture.
