Ingredients
For the Cake:
Cooking spray, for pan
1 box chocolate cake mix
1 (3.4 oz) package chocolate instant pudding mix
4 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup water
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
For the Filling:
1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp heavy cream
For the Top:
1 cup chocolate chips, melted
1 cup peanut butter, melted
1 cup Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bundt pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine chocolate cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, oil, water, and melted butter. Beat with a hand mixer until smooth.
Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, return the cake to the bundt pan. Use a teaspoon or melon baller to scoop out 6–8 large holes from the bottom, without breaking through the top.
For the filling, beat together the softened butter and peanut butter until combined. Add powdered sugar and heavy cream, then beat until fluffy. Transfer to a piping bag.
Pipe the filling into the holes in the cake. Carefully invert the cake back onto a serving platter.
Drizzle with melted chocolate and peanut butter. Sprinkle chopped Reese’s on top.
