This Death by Chocolate Peanut Butter Dump Cake comes together using only 6 ingredients! Ready for the oven in under 10 minutes, this will satisfy anyones sweet tooth craving!
Wow! What a way to go, huh?? One of my most favorite dessert combinations is chocolate peanut butter. To me, there is nothing better. Last week, I decided to change up my death by chocolate dump cake by adding in a little peanut butter. Not only was this cake amazing, but it was incredibly simple and flavorful. The cake was moist, had little bits of peanut butter throughout it, and even had bits of chocolate chips.
Using only a few pre packaged ingredients and combining them, this was an inexpensive, delicious cake!!
Definitely try this recipe if you enjoy chocolate, cake, and peanut butter combined!!

Love your recepies. But I have a niece who is a type 1 diabetic and I would love it if you would be able to post the nutritional facts, especially the carbohydrates.
Kristin
Great suggestion! I will see if I can add a feature that can post that with my recipes 🙂

I am always looking for new things to try in the slow cooker. Oh my, this reminds me of the warm, gooey chocolate pudding cake my mom used to make for my sisters and I when we were young.
Kristin
Yum!!! Hope you enjoy this!! 🙂

Do you add eggs oil water like on the box or just these ingredients?
Kristin
Nope, just the ingredients listed in the recipe. Disregard the package directions/ingredients 🙂

Kristin

Peaches
Has anyone tried to put them into cupcake form ? Just wondering of the cook time ?
Kristin
I haven’t tried it, but that would be a great idea! I bet if you cut the time by about 10 minutes, that would be a good starting point!! Enjoy!

Why is it called a dump cake
Kristin
Its called a dump cake basically because you only have to “dump” a few ingredients together to create the cake. It is much easier than making a cake from scratch! Hope you enjoy this!!

Where do u find Reece mini cups
Kristin
I have found them at my grocery store in the candy aisle, if you cant find them, you can chop up full sized ones as well!! Enjoy!

Would it be okay to add chopped nuts? I know you stated the batter is thick, but I do love the crunch of nuts.
Kristin
Oh absolutely! It is quite a thick batter, but simply spread it out using a wooden spoon and nuts are a great addition! Enjoy!

Do you know if I use a gluten free cake mix does everything else stay the same?
Kristin
Everything should stay the same and work great!! Enjoy!

OK; I’m, no longer, a skeptic.
This recipe is AWSOME! Easy to make and a chocolate lover’s dream.
The only change I made was using the 1/2 & 1/2 peanut butter/chocolate toll house chips.
Served warm with French vanilla ice cream, chocolate sundae syrup and whipped cream…
I died and went to heaven!
Kristin
Haha, LOVE hearing that! So glad you enjoyed it! I love the toppings you added! Everything is better with some ice cream and toppings, haha!
