Ingredients
1 box (15.25 oz) Devil’s Food cake mix
1.5cups whole milk (substitute with almond milk for dairy-free)
1cup creamy peanut butter (or crunchy for added texture)
1cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2cup unsalted butter (melted (1 stick))
Instructions
Preheat the oven and prepare the dish. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter for easy cleanup.
Layer milk and chocolate chips. Pour 1.5 cups of whole milk into the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly over the milk.
Add peanut butter. Spoon 1 cup of creamy peanut butter in dollops over the chocolate chips without stirring.
Cover with cake mix. Cover the surface with 1 box of dry Devil’s Food cake mix. Do not stir.
Pour melted butter. Melt 1/2 cup of unsalted butter and pour it evenly over the cake mix.
Bake the cake. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until bubbly and set on top, with a crispy edge.
Cool and serve. Let cool for 15 minutes, then serve warm, preferably with vanilla ice cream.
Notes
Substitute whole milk with almond milk for a dairy-free option.
Use crunchy peanut butter for added texture if desired.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for the best experience.
