Peanut Butter Cup Dump Cake
Ingredients:
1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix
1 package (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix

1½ cups chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Directions:
Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and milk until smooth. Add the chocolate cake mix and stir until well combined; the batter will be thick.
