Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box (15 oz) chocolate cake mix
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup peanut butter cups (mini or regular)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Whipped topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, water, and vegetable oil. Mix until just combined; lumps are acceptable.
- Add Eggs: Crack in the two eggs and stir until smooth, creating a batter that resembles melted chocolate.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in one cup of chocolate chips to enhance the batter's richness.
- Layer with Peanut Butter Cups: Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking dish. Chop the peanut butter cups and sprinkle them over the batter. Pour the remaining batter on top.
- Bake and Cool: Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean (or slightly gooey for extra decadence). Allow to cool for at least ten minutes before serving.
- Serve: For an indulgent experience, serve warm with whipped topping on top if desired.
