We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  • FOR THE CAKE

  • Step 2: Combine cake mix, egg and melted butter. Mix well with electric mixer. Pat the mixture into the bottom of a lightly greased 9×13 inch pan.

  • Step 3: Next chop the Peanut Butter Cup Miniatures into small pieces. Spread over the first cake layer.

  • FOR THE FILLING

  • Step 4: Beat the cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth. Next add the eggs, vanilla and melted butter. Mix together. Add the powdered sugar and beat together.

  • Step 5: Pour the filling over the over the REESE’S® Peanut Butter Cup Miniatures layer and then spread evenly using a rubber spatula.

  • Step 6: Bake for approximately 50 minutes. Make sure you do not over bake as the center should be gooey. Let set for about 30 minutes or until the peanut butter layer cools and thickens.
