Paleo Chocolate Espresso Cake image

My husband loves chocolate and so does most of our family! I must be weird because chocolate has never been a first choice for me but every now and then I may take a little corner. I had just mixed up some fresh almond butter at my local store and had all of the other ingredients to create this paleo chocolate espresso cake and it was a big hit!

1 teaspoon melted coconut oil, or as needed

This cake was a hit at my paleo gathering! Everyone loved the rich chocolate flavor and the hint of espresso. It was moist and decadent, and it disappeared quickly.
