Ingredients

cooking spray
¾ cup chopped peanuts
1 (15.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix (such as Betty Crocker® Super Moist®)
1 ¼ cups water
3 eggs
½ cup vegetable oil
8 peanut butter cups, chopped
3 ½ cups confectioners' sugar, divided
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup peanut butter
¼ cup butter
½ cup milk
¼ cup cocoa powder

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
Spread chopped peanuts on the bottom of the baking pan.
Mix chocolate cake mix, water, eggs, and oil in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Fold peanut butter cups into the cake batter. Pour over peanuts in the baking pan.
Mix 2 cups confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, and peanut butter in another large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Drop tablespoonfuls of cream cheese mixture over cake batter in the baking pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add milk and cocoa powder; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and stir in remaining 1 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar. Remove from heat and let glaze cool somewhat, 5 to 10 minutes.
Pour glaze over baked cake; glaze will pool in cream cheese craters.

How to make chocolate-volcano-cake

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
1 package German chocolate cake mix
10 bite-size coconut candy bars, chopped, such as Almond Joy
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup (1 stick butter), at room temperature
2 cups confectioners' sugar
Chocolate Pecan Glaze, recipe follows

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13-by-9-by-2-inch pan with nonstick spray.
Mix the coconut and nuts and spread them evenly in the pan. Prepare the cake mix as directed on the box. Stir in the chopped candy bars. Pour the batter over the coconut and nuts. Combine the cream cheese, butter and sugar. Randomly drop tablespoons of this mixture on top of the batter; do not spread them.
Bake until the sides of the cake pull away from the pan, 40 to 50 minutes. Pour the warm Chocolate Pecan Glaze over the cake. Slice and enjoy.
Cook's Note: Paula likes to change the box cake recipe to her liking. You can still follow the directions on the cake box and get a delicious volcano cake. But if you would like to do Paula's version of this cake, add 4 eggs instead of 3 and replaces the water measurement with milk. She also adds a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
