Step-by-Step Instructions for Peanut Butter Cup Dump Cake
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, milk, creamy peanut butter, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  3. Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish. Sprinkle the chocolate cake mix over it.
  4. Drizzle melted butter over the top of the cake mix.
  5. Distribute mini peanut butter cups on top and press down gently.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the edges are golden brown; a toothpick should come out with moist crumbs.
  7. Allow to cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 15-20 minutes before slicing.
  8. Serve warm, drizzled with chocolate syrup and topped with whipped cream or ice cream.
