Low Carb Flourless Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake. The last low carb mug cake recipe you will ever need.
One of the things I never really liked about low carb mug cakes was their wet, almost spongy texture. While they curbed the chocolate craving, they never quite felt like cake. WELL, here is a recipe that will change that. This flourless chocolate peanut butter cake is moist and dense and best of all it is ready in just under 2 minutes.

I don't use microwaves. Can you tell me how long and at what temperature in the over please. I really want to try this because of all the above raves.

So good OMG! Thank you so much for creating this! Not spongey at all! Cooked for 1 min on high.

Man, this is good! I did not thoroughly read the instructions and added the tablespoon of butter to the batter. It was still so so good! The closest thing to a 'real' chocolate cake that I have ever had since doing keto and low carb for umpteen years. I think the next time I make this (which will be quite soon), I will try piping some filling in the center. Thank you!

A teaspoon of butter, not tablespoon.

Very good. Add a little swerve powdered sugar to the whipped peanut butter. This is a great treat when you are really craving cake or brownies.
