    In large bowl, beat peanut butter and whipped topping with electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Spread over cake.
  • 4
    Using large chef’s knife, cut peanut butter cups into fourths. Scatter over frosting. Drizzle with remaining 1/4 cup chocolate syrup.
  • 5
    Cover and refrigerate cake, but bring to room temperature before serving. Cover and refrigerate any remaining cake.
