2 Minute Chocolate Peanut Butter Mini Cake Low Carb-

A 2  Minute Chocolate Peanut Butter Mini Cake Low Carb  that is a 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 has 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 little more sassy. 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.
