Ingredients

For the Cake:

  • Cooking spray, for pan

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix

  • 1 (3.4-ounce) package chocolate instant pudding mix

  • 4 large eggs

  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil

  • 1 cup water

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

For the Peanut Butter Filling:

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream

For the Topping:

  • 1 cup chocolate chips, melted

  • 1 cup peanut butter, melted

  • 1 cup Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously coat a Bundt pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

  2. Cake Batter: In a large bowl, mix together the chocolate cake mix, chocolate pudding, eggs, vegetable oil, water, and melted butter. Use a hand mixer to beat the mixture until it’s smooth and well-combined.

  3. Baking: Pour the cake batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Bake for approximately 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before inverting it onto a cooling rack to cool completely.

  4. Create Filling Holes: Once cooled, place the cake back into the Bundt pan. Using a teaspoon, scoop out 6 to 8 large holes around the bottom of the cake, being careful not to break through the top.

  5. Make the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix together softened butter and peanut butter. Add powdered sugar and heavy cream, and beat until fluffy. Transfer the filling to a piping bag for easy application.

  6. Pipe & Flip: Pipe the peanut butter filling into the holes at the bottom of the cake. Once filled, invert the cake onto a serving platter.

  7. Finishing Touches: Drizzle the cake with the melted chocolate and peanut butter, then sprinkle the top generously with chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

 

Notes

  • Serving Suggestion: Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra festive touch!

  • Storage: Cover and store at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.

Enjoy every sweet, chocolaty, peanut-buttery bite of this holiday Reese’s Bundt Cake! 🎄🍫
