- 160 ml vegetable oil
- 200 ml sour cream
- 160 ml milk

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 170°C and grease the pans.
- In a large bowl, place eggs, sugar, oil, sour cream, milk, and salt, then whisk until uniform.
- Add cocoa powder, flour, and baking powder, whisking well until a rather-thin batter forms.
Baking
- Pour the batter into the prepared pans.
- Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of peanut butter on top of each cake, and use a knife to swirl it into the batter for a lovely marble effect.
- Sprinkle mini Reese’s Cups and chocolate chips on top of the cakes.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes or until set, checking with a skewer inserted in the center—moist crumbs should stick.
- Cool at room temperature and serve.
Notes
Cover the cake with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge for storage. It will stay fresh for about 3-4 days. For longer storage, freeze slices individually wrapped in plastic and then in foil.
