Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 cups powdered sugar

Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, mix chocolate cake mix, water, oil, and eggs until well combined. Pour batter into the prepared baking dish.
- In another bowl, beat peanut butter, butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Drop spoonfuls of the peanut butter mixture over the cake batter. Use a knife to swirl the peanut butter mixture into the batter.
- Sprinkle chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups evenly over the top.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. The center will still be slightly gooey.
- Let cool for 15 minutes before serving.
