Here, take this spoon.

And reach through the screen and have a bite. Warm, perfectly sweetened peanut butter sauce, piled onto a homemade chocolate cake (with a secret ingredient!)

I share this with you because I love you…and I want you to treat yourself to this ridiculously tasty slow cooker dessert. *mwah*

P.S. The secret ingredient isn’t really that secret. I’m a HUGE fan of adding coffee (instant or brewed) to brownie and chocolate cake batters (I’ve got another recipe coming soon!). As evidence, I leave you with Exhibits A through E; and then this recipe…

• Mocha Brownies
• Salted Caramel Mocha Brownies
• Peppermint Bark Brownies
• Thin Mint Brownies
• Black Bean Coconut Brownies

The coffee flavor enhances the chocolate flavor and your batters will never be the same again! I always had a stash of instant coffee on hand for baking with chocolate & cocoa!
