Low Carb Chocolate Birthday Cake - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
100 g almond flour
1 tablespoon instant coffee powder
3 big eggs
2 tablespoons artificial sweetener (or to your taste)
60 g dark chocolate
60 g dry coconut powder
2 -3 drops vanilla essence
1 teaspoon baking powder, and salt to match it
175 g cream cheese
15 ml Amaretto
2 tablespoons artificial sweetener (or to your taste)
2 tablespoons soft butter
Preparation
-
Preheat over to 190 degrees Celsius.
Separate the whites from the yolks and beat the whites stiff.
In the bowl with the yolks add the sweetener, melted chocolate, coffee powder, baking powder, vanilla essence, ground coconut and almond flour.
Gently fold in the egg whites. This will give the cake it's height and make your dough more moist.
Bake for about 25minutes at 190\u00b0C Check while it's cooking because all ovens are different.
Afterwards let the cake cool and in the meantime we can make the filling.
Mix the cream cheese with the sweetener, soft butter and add the Amaretto. I would suggest putting it in the fridge to harden. This will make the smearing a lot easier.
Now you can assemble the cake. Cut your cake in half horizontally, making two nice flat discs.Generously add the cream cheese filling and put both halves back together. Don't push them down, you want the extra height.
