This moist and decadent chocolate cake is packed with chopped mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and a luscious combination of chocolate and peanut butter chips, topped with a creamy chocolate sauce.

Ingredients

Cake Mix Ingredients

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • Ingredients required for cake mix (eggs, oil, water as per box instructions)

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 package instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 cup mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare Crockpot: Spray the inside of the crockpot with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure easy serving.
  2. Mix Cake Batter: Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions, including the required eggs, oil, and water. Stir in 1 cup of milk and the dry instant chocolate pudding mix until the batter is smooth and fully combined.
  3. Add Mix-ins: Gently fold in the chopped mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups along with the 1/2 cup chocolate chips and 1/2 cup peanut butter chips to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
  4. Cook the Cake: Pour the batter into the prepared crockpot. Cover with the lid and cook on low for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, checking around 2 hours for doneness, until the cake is set in the center and a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with moist crumbs.
  5. Cool and Serve: Turn off the crockpot and allow the cake to cool slightly inside before serving. This cake is delicious when served warm and can be topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgence.

Notes

  • Use a crockpot liner for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
  • Check the cake after 2 hours of cooking to avoid overcooking which can dry out the cake.
  • Garnish with extra chopped peanut butter cups or additional chocolate chips for presentation and flavor boost.
