Peanut Butter Cup Dump Cake Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 1 1/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1 cup peanut butter chips
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini peanut butter cups halved
- 1 can 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
Layer Ingredients:
- Spread the chocolate cake mix evenly over the base of the prepared baking dish.
- Pour milk and melted butter over the cake mix, spreading it gently to ensure the entire mix is moistened.
- Sprinkle the peanut butter chips, chocolate chips, and halved mini peanut butter cups evenly over the top.
Add Sweetened Condensed Milk:
- Drizzle the sweetened condensed milk evenly across the top, ensuring that it covers all the layered ingredients.
Bake the Cake:
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are bubbly and the center appears set.
Serve:
- Allow the cake to cool slightly before serving. For an extra indulgent treat, top with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Notes
- Don’t Stir the Layers: For a true dump cake, layer without mixing to keep the texture light and gooey.
- Check for Doneness: The edges should be bubbly, and the center should appear set when the cake is done. If it seems too gooey, bake for an additional 5 minutes.
- Choose a Deep Baking Dish: A 9x13-inch dish with higher sides will prevent any overflow.
