This no-bake dessert combines instant pudding, Cool Whip, and chopped Reese’s peanut butter cups to create a creamy, fluffy treat with a rich peanut butter and chocolate flavor. Perfect for quick, easy, and fun cupcakes with an optional swirl of peanut butter or cocoa powder for extra indulgence.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip, thawed
  • 1 (3.4 oz) box instant chocolate or peanut butter pudding mix
  • ½ to cup cold milk
  • 68 Reese’s peanut butter cups, chopped
  • Optional: 1–2 tbsp peanut butter or cocoa powder for swirl

Instructions

  1. Mix Pudding and Milk: Whisk the instant pudding mix and cold milk together until the mixture is slightly thickened, ensuring there are no lumps.
  2. Fold in Cool Whip: Gently fold the thawed Cool Whip into the pudding mixture until it becomes fluffy and well combined, creating a light and airy base.
  3. Add Reese’s Cups: Fold in the chopped Reese’s peanut butter cups evenly throughout the mixture for bursts of peanut butter and chocolate flavor in every bite.
  4. Optional Swirl: Drizzle 1–2 tablespoons of peanut butter or cocoa powder over the mixture and gently fold to create a marbled effect, enhancing both flavor and presentation.
  5. Chill the Mixture: Refrigerate the prepared mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow it to set and flavors to meld before serving or using in cupcakes.

Notes

  • Use cold milk to ensure the pudding thickens properly.
  • Thaw Cool Whip completely before mixing for best texture.
  • Adjust the amount of Reese’s cups according to preferred chocolate-to-pb ratio.
  • The optional swirl adds great visual appeal and extra flavor but can be omitted if desired.
  • This mixture can be served as a dip or filling for cupcakes or parfaits.
