The Best Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake for One is so decadent and topped with a warm peanut butter sauce. Hot, gooey, and ready in five minutes!

Decadent chocolate cake swirled with creamy peanut butter and topped with a hot peanut butter sauce. Ready in five minutes!

Have you ever been craving dessert and wanted to bake a yummy treat, but you don’t want to bake an entire pan of something because you really just want one treat? That happens to me more times than I care to admit. Ha! I was on a mission to make a dessert for one that would satisfy a sweet craving while enjoy something decadent and delicious. This recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake is just that! And you’re really going to love how easy it is to make. You don’t even have to measure the peanut butter. I know, right?

Windstone Farms Creamy Peanut Butter Portable Packets are the secret to making the peanut butter part of this recipe so easy. It’s made from only USA grown and harvested peanuts (roasted and packaged in Louisville, KY) and it tastes amazing. You can tell it’s high quality! (Click the image above to purchase from Walmart!)

Windstone Farms has been family owned and operated for 35 years. It’s new at Walmart and it was super easy to find. You can earn $0.50 back while supplies last! (Be on the lookout for a demo at a Walmart near you where you can try the NEW Windstone Farms Creamy Peanut Butter Portable Packets, August 8-10!)

Windstone Farms Peanut Butter Packets are Convenient and Portable

Do you have kids who love eating peanut butter by the spoonful? My seven year old is always asking for peanut butter and these convenient 1.15oz squeezable packets save me when we’re on the go. And they’re even TSA approved so you can throw them right in your backpack or purse! So travel friendly and perfect for my kids when they want a snack or even to pack in their lunches. Sometimes they just want peanut butter and not a whole sandwich!

Windstone Farms Peanut Butter Packets

Windstone Farms Peanut Butter Packets are naturally gluten free and pack 7G of protein per packet. A great alternative to unhealthy snacks!

So lets get to this dessert. I made this with the intention of sharing with my kids, but instead I gave it a try and realized I just couldn’t do that. Ha! I put kids down for naps and quiet time, grabbed my dessert, and watched TV. It was bliss.

Ingredients for Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake for One

If you ever bake, it is likely you already have all the ingredients you need to make this yummy chocolate peanut butter cake. You’ll only need a little bit of each ingredient, too! And thanks to Windstone Farms Peanut Butter Packets, you don’t even have to measure out the peanut butter. You’ll need two packets for this recipe, one for the cake and one for the sauce.

How to Make the Cake

You’re going to love how easy this treat is to make! Simply combine the dry ingredients in a microwavable bowl, add the wet ingredients, add the peanut butter, and put in the microwave to bake. Don’t even stir in the peanut butter! Just squeeze it out from the packet and leave it just like it is.

From here you have two options: you can  either invert the cake onto a plate (if this is what you want to do, make sure you grease your bowl first), or you can leave it in the bowl and add the peanut butter sauce right on top.
