CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER CUP MUG CAKE

I had the idea to make this cake about a month ago after buying a mixed bag of dark chocolate candies, including dark chocolate peanut butter cups. I even set aside a few of them to make this cake, in case someone “accidentally” finished them all.

And then I promptly forgot all about the cake and the peanut butter cups until I was rummaging through my snack closet the other day. I’m so glad I found these stowed away peanut butter cups because I love how this cake came out. It’s the perfect mid-week treat!And then I promptly forgot all about the cake and the peanut butter cups until I was rummaging through my snack closet the other day.
