Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
  • 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 1 1/2 cups Reese’s peanut butter cups, chopped (about 12–15 mini cups)
  • 3/4 cup salted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until completely smooth, about 30 seconds.
  3. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared dish and spread evenly with a spatula.
  4. Scatter the chopped Reese’s cups evenly over the pumpkin layer. Press them down gently into the mixture so they are partially submerged.
  5. Sprinkle the yellow cake mix evenly over the entire surface, covering all the pumpkin and Reese’s cups.
  6. Drizzle the melted butter as evenly as possible over the cake mix. Do not stir.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and slightly crispy around the edges, and the center is set with a slight jiggle.
  8. Cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.

Notes

For best results, use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. Room temperature ingredients help the butter distribute evenly. Don’t over-chop the Reese’s cups; aim for quarter-inch chunks. If the top browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil. Leftovers keep refrigerated for up to 5 days and can be reheated in the microwave or oven.
