Place peanut butter, erythritol, and butter into a small microwave safe ramekin. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, just enough to soften. Remove from microwave, stir until mixed well. drizzle over cake batter
Bake: Bake 14 minutes on the center rack (some ovens require more baking time, so continue cooking until firm if needed).
