Then you can slice it and serve. It actually lasts for three days if you store it in a room temperature, covered.
Flourless peanut butter choco chip cake
This is also one of the desserts that are easy to make because the batter that will be used in making this is actually made in the blender. Even so, it still tastes like that of a cake made with white sugar, butter, oil, and flour. Preparation time for this recipe is two minutes and the cook time is only for about twenty-five minutes.

Step 3. Add the choco chips
You can then add the choco chips in the blender and stir by hand. You have to know that you have to make it on your own since seeking the assistance of your blender for this would only pulverize you chips.
Step 4. Set into a pan
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top lightly by using a spatula. Sprinkle the extra choco chips evenly.

After doing the previous step, you can now bake it for about 25 minutes or until such time that the cake is springy to touch and it is set to the center. Then when you think it is already baked, give it time to cool down for bout fifteen minute before removing the pan from the oven. You can then serve it. It can last up to four months if stored in a freezer, and five days if stored at a room temperature.
