Ingredients
1 box chocolate cake mix (about 15.25 oz)
1 cup peanut butter, melted
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 bag mini peanut butter cups (about 12 oz), unwrapped and halved
1 stick unsalted butter (½ cup), sliced
Instructions
1 Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2 Pour the melted peanut butter evenly into the bottom of the baking dish.
3 Sprinkle the chocolate chips and halved mini peanut butter cups over the peanut butter layer.
4 Evenly pour the dry chocolate cake mix over the top, spreading it out without mixing.
5 Distribute the slices of butter across the entire surface of the cake mix.
6 Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and the edges are crisp.
7 Let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm on its own or topped with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
For an extra peanut butter punch, swirl a few dollops of peanut butter into the cake mix layer before baking. This dessert is best served warm but can also be reheated. Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
