Equipment

  • Baking Dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Box of Chocolate Cake Mix
  • 1 Box of Instant Chocolate Pudding
  • 1 3/4 Cup of Milk
  • 16 Ounces of Mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
  • 8 Ounces of Whipped Cream
  • Chocolate Syrup

Instructions
 

  • Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spraying a 9x13 baking dish with a non-stick baking spray.
  • In a large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer), mix together the milk and package of instant pudding. Add the cake mix, and stir until well combined.
  • Using a spoon, fold in the majority of the peanut butter cups.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely before moving on to the toppings! Use a wire rack to help speed the cooling process up.
  • Spread the whipped topping on the top of the cake in an even layer. Drizzle chocolate syrup across the top, and sprinkle on peanut butter cups that have been cut in half.
