Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Poke Cake- with yoyomax12

My second channel for unboxings, product reviews and travel vlogs:

1 box chocolate cake mix, or one "from scratch" chocolate cake
(eggs, oil, water or milk called for on box mix)
8 oz happy cream cheese at room temperature
14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup creamy peanut butter
12 oz Cool Whip, divided
12 oz hot fudge (reserve a bit for drizzling at the end as garnish)
8 peanut butter cups quartered

Prepare cake mix according to package directions, bake as as soon as it comes out of the oven, poke holes all over it with a fork or the handle end of a wooden spoon.
Pour hot fudge over warm cake and spread out evenly.
Allow to cool completely.
Blend the cream cheese and the sweetened condensed milk together and then blend in the peanut butter.
Fold in half the Cool Whip.
Spread peanut butter mixture evenly over cake.
Spread remaining Cool Whip over peanut butter layer.
Sprinkle with peanut butter cup pieces and drizzle with more hot fudge or chocolate syrup.

poke the cake with a knife. the holes the fork makes is to small for the chocolate to seep through

[avonleanne]

I usually use the handle end of my wooden spoon to poke holes with in a poke cake just for that same reason =)

I made this last night and wished I had found your video yesterday!!!! My bad! Your videos ALWAYS are the best in giving tips and hints. I too am worried that my hot fudge did not seep into the holes and my cake will be on the dry side. I will look up the other chocolate cake recipe you suggested and try this cake again. Thank so much YOYO! Catch ya later with another update! Also, thanks to ALL the posts here with great suggestions too!

I use the tip of my wooden spoon to poke the holes and use sweeten condensed milk with hot fudge and let it sit for 2 hrs before topping my cakes and they are always moist any thanks for sharing love your videos

Another sinful dessert! I bet it's a lot of fun making these layered desserts! xo

I made this today. I use Duncan Hines super moist triple chocolate fudge mix. The cake is not dry but moist. The fudge seeped through the cake just fine. I imagine after a few days in the refrigerator the cake will not be dry. All of the other ingredients will through. I select the lite sweetened condensed milk and low fat cool whip. The cake is really rich and sweet. You only need a small serving to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Aww I miss the intro with the slide show of the cow kettle

[sadiepatterson]

Do you prefer smooth or chunky peanut butter?

[duckyone]

it looks good. I wonder if you used a different kind of sauce it would work

[MrMcGregor]

You should try it with much bigger holes in think you'd like it that way if you tried it

[TheDemonCalcifer]

What if you mixed condensed milk with the hot fudge to thin it out? That way it seeps into the holes better and isn't so thick.

I have heard of adding pudding mix to the cake mix to make it moister. Could that be done here? Or maybe use a chocolate cake recipe called Wacky Chocolate Cake a.k.a. Depression Cake because that is extremely moist. =) Just a couple of ideas I thought I would put out there. I love Reese's Peanut Butter Cups....not sure they would last in my house long enough to cut up and put on top of the cake. LOL

[buglady]

mmm, chocolate & peanut butter is my fave :-)

[lavishalien]

Second, Can you do more recipes with strawberries please? ;)

[tinabutter]

my dad loves anything peanut butter so I know what I will be making for him!!

[LissiKinz]

Maybe try it with a (warm) chocolate ganache? And add some reese's to the cake batter.

[derwen]

what if you poured a box of prepared chocolate pudding mix over the top of cake to make the cake moist instead of using the chocolate syrup? Just a suggested.

[TimberBell]

Poke it with a straw, put chocolate in a bottle with a tip, and squirt into the holes, or a cake decorating bag, with the long tip that fills up donuts.
