Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 7

one 15.25 oz. box chocolate cake mix
one 3.4 oz. package vanilla instant pudding mix
2 cups cold milk
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter, divided
one 16 oz. can chocolate frosting
one 8 oz. tub frozen whipped topping, thawed
25 Reese'se peanut butter cup miniatures, unwrapped and roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Prepare and bake the cake according to the package instructions, baking in a 13 x 9-inch cake pan.
  • Let the cake cool 15-20 minutes, then poke holes in the cake every 1/2 to 1 inch with the round end of a wooden spoon.
  • Empty the pudding mix into a medium bowl, and add the milk.
  • Whisk briskly for 2 minutes or until the pudding mix is dissolved then whisk in 1/2 cup of the peanut butter until combined and smooth.
  • Pour the pudding mixture over the cake, filling the holes as much as possible.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave the chocolate frosting for 15-20 seconds, or until it can be poured easily. Drizzle it over the cake and spread evenly with the back of a spoon or an offset spatula.
  • Let the cake cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of peanut butter and the whipped topping. Spread over the cake and top with the peanut butter cups.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. Store covered in the refrigerator.
