Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix prepared according to package instructions
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream slightly softened
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 cup chopped Reese’s cups
- whipped cream for topping
- chocolate syrup for drizzling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven and prepare the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions. Bake until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely on a wire rack. This ensures clean slices and prevents melting during layering.
- Once cooled, carefully slice the cake horizontally into two even layers using a serrated knife.
- Spread a layer of smooth peanut butter over the bottom cake layer, then top it with a layer of vanilla ice cream. Sprinkle chopped Reese’s cups on top.
- Place the second cake layer on top and repeat the process with peanut butter, ice cream, and Reese’s cups.
- Top the cake with whipped cream and drizzle with chocolate syrup for a decadent finish.
- Freeze the assembled cake for at least 4 hours (or overnight) until fully set before serving.
Notes
For extra flair, top with crushed nuts, caramel drizzle, or fresh fruit before freezing. Slice with a warm knife for cleaner cuts. Store in the freezer in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
