Ingredients:
- 1 (15.25 oz) box of chocolate cake mix
- 1 (3.4 oz) box of chocolate instant pudding mix
- 1 ¾ cups milk
- 1 (8 oz) package mini Reese’s PB Cups, chopped
Directions:

The addition of pudding mix not only enhances the chocolatey flavor but also ensures a moist texture. Next, add the chocolate cake mix to the bowl.

- Bake: Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish, making sure to spread it out evenly. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool slightly in the dish before serving. This dump cake can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature, making it a versatile dessert for any occasion.
