Ingredients:  
Cake:
1 box devil's food cake mix, plus ingredients to make the cake
1 small box sugar-free instant chocolate pudding mix

2 c. peanut butter melted (or less or none)

Frosting:
1 c. smooth peanut butter
10 T butter, softened to room temperature
2 c. powdered sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
2 T milk

Topping:
1 c. Reese's cups, chopped
1 c. Reese's pieces, chopped

Directions:
Directions:
Mix the dry cake mix with the dry pudding mix. Add the ingredients called for on the box of the cake mix and bake according to directions in a 9x13-inch cake pan. Let cake cool completely. Using the back of a wooden spoon, poke holes all over the cake. Pour the melted peanut butter over the entire cake, filling the holes. Set aside.

In a large bowl and using an electric mixer, cream together peanut butter and butter. Add powdered sugar, vanilla and salt and beat until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in milk to loosen frosting, if needed. Spread frosting all over the top of the cake. Top with chopped Reece's, Reese's Pieces and drizzle with chocolate syrup.

Personal Notes:
This is a great recipe for cupcakes. You can omit some or all of the melted peanut butter if desired as 2 cups of melted peanut butter is a lot! Also, just using chopped up Reese's cups works well if you don't have Reese's pieces. This is a crowd pleaser and a great dessert for potluck dinners.
