Hey sounds great but do you use 20 miniature reeses's or the full size. Can't wait to try this!

Do you use instant chocolate pudding?

I'm going to make this primarily for the peanut butter frosting... incredible!

This cake is very moist, maybe too much so. I cooked it for well over 60 minutes and there were still a few gooey spots. Also, you could cut the icing ingredients in half and still have plenty to ice the cake. Very rich. Very peanut buttery.

We recently had a “Nothing Bundt” cake. It was wonderful and I searched for copycats and ran across this. I made this this morning and I’m anxious to try it. It’s cooling right now. I did not have any Reesie’s so I used receives peanut butter chips and Nestlé’s milk chocolate chips. I put half in the cake of each package and will decorate the top with the rest of it.
While making this though it shows a small instant pudding then shows 3.9 ounces. The small Jell-O instant pudding is 1.4 ounces. I had two of the sugar free and used both of them in the recipe. But either the ounce comment needs to be changed or small needs to be removed from the recipe. Hoping it turns out ok.

I made this cake but I used hot fudge on the cake after it cooled down then put the frosting then added the Reese’s and added Reese’s pieces and drizzled more hot chocolate. It was great!

This cake is excellent!! I did not add the extra sugar to the cake and it was still plenty sweet. I also substituted Reese’s peanut butter chips in the cake batter because I happened to have them on hand.
