Ingredients

Base Layers

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix (15.25 oz / 432 g)
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz / 396 g)
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk (or half-and-half for extra richness)
  • 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup (120 g) creamy peanut butter

The Fun Stuff

  • 2 cups chopped peanut butter cups (mini cups work great)
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped peanuts for crunch

For Serving (Optional but Highly Recommended)

  • Vanilla ice cream
  • Whipped cream
  • Chocolate syrup or hot fudge
  • Extra chopped peanut butter cups

Instructions

  1. Preheat: Heat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Make the gooey base: In a bowl, whisk sweetened condensed milk with milk until smooth.
    Pour into the baking dish and spread evenly.
  3. Add peanut butter: Warm peanut butter for 15–20 seconds so it drizzles easily.
    Drop spoonfuls across the milk layer and gently swirl with a knife (don’t overmix).
  4. Layer the candy and chips: Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups chopped peanut butter cups and all chocolate chips
    evenly over the base.
