Rich chocolate cake layered with peanut butter cups and pudding—an easy, decadent dessert you’ll crave.

Ingredients

1 (15.25 oz) box chocolate cake mix

1 (3.4 oz) box chocolate instant pudding mix

2 cups milk (for the pudding)

1½ cups mini or chopped peanut butter cups (plus extra for topping)

½ cup peanut butter, warmed slightly

½ cup melted butter

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or spray with nonstick cooking spray.

Layer the ingredients:

Sprinkle the dry chocolate cake mix evenly into the dish (do not mix).

In a bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and milk until just combined. Pour over the cake mix.

Scatter chopped peanut butter cups over the top.

Drizzle warmed peanut butter over everything, followed by melted butter.

Bake:
Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until bubbly and mostly set in the center. The top should be slightly crisp with gooey layers underneath.

Cool slightly and serve warm.
Top with whipped cream, ice cream, or more peanut butter cups for extra indulgence!

Notes

For extra richness, add chocolate chips or swirl in Nutella before baking.

Store leftovers covered at room temp for 2 days or refrigerate for up to 4.

Best served warm, straight from the pan with a spoon!
