2 Minute Chocolate Peanut Butter Mini Cake Low Carb, Keto-

2 Minute Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Mini Cake - Low carb, gluten free & paleo version

A 2 -Minute Chocolate Peanut Butter Mini Cake Low Carb that is keto, grain-free, gluten-free, paleo, small, nut butter layer cake with chocolate chips and a chocolate nut butter frosting.

All this deliciousness can be made in an amazing two minutes!

My 14-year-old son loved this cake so much, and when I told him I made it in 2 minutes, he declared that I was a kitchen wizard, lol.

That was one of the sweeter statements that have come out of his teen mouth lately. He used to say sweet things to me all the time when he was younger, but becoming a teen means a little less sweet and a little sassier. Why do they grow up so fast?

However, I still seem to be able to change his sassy teen attitude to a suddenly sweeter disposition by baking chocolate treats.
