Steps:
- Use the bottom of a wooden spoon to poke holes evenly throughout the cake. I usually end up poking 20 to 25 holes. Pour the can of sweetened condensed milk evenly over top of the cake, aiming to fill up the holes. Scrape the hot fudge into a medium bowl. Add the 1/4 cup peanut butter. Microwave for 30 seconds. Mix until smooth and spread over the cake. In a large bowl, whisk together the 3 tablespoon peanut butter with the cool whip (I use a hand mixer here, but it's not a big deal to do it by hand). Spread the peanut butter cool whip over top. Chill for at least 4 hours (overnight is really best). Top with chopped Reese's cups and Reese's Pieces (you can add these before chilling, but the Reese's Pieces candy coating will bleed onto the cool whip when chilled).
PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE POKE CAKE
When my family is planning a get-together, I can count on three or four people asking if I'm bringing this chocolate peanut butter poke cake. If you don't have a chocolate cake mix, use a white or yellow one and stir in 3 tablespoons of baking cocoa. -Fay Moreland, Wichita Falls, Texas

Tips:
- Use a room-temperature cream cheese for the frosting. This will make it easier to mix and spread.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
- Make sure to refrigerate the cake for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the frosting set and the cake firm up.
- For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet.
- If you're short on time, you can use a store-bought chocolate cake mix instead of making your own.
- To make the cake ahead of time, bake it and let it cool completely. Then, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 3 months. When you're ready to serve, thaw the cake overnight in the refrigerator and then decorate it.
