Low Carb Rich Chocolate Cake Food

LOW CARB SUGAR FREE CHOCOLATE BIRTHDAY CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C / 350 Fahrenheit. Generously grease two 21 x 4 cm round non-stick baking tins with butter.
• Add all ingredients to blender, starting with the wet, and blend until smooth. You may need to scrape the sides a couple of times and blitz again.
• Spoon the mix into your greased baking tins and bake for about 35 minutes or until you can insert and remove a skewer without any crumbs sticking. Do not over bake as it will firm up as it cools.
• Allow to fully cool.
• Place the cream in a pan on med/ low and heat until hot, just as it starts to simmer. Do not boil. Turn off the heat.
• Chop the chocolate quite fine. Add to the hot cream. Do not stir. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes. Stirring will cool down the mix too quickly and may result in splitting.
• Stir with a spatula until melted. If your ganache splits, don't panic, just put in a food processor and blend until smooth and it will right itself. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes so not boiling but still easily spreadable.
• Spread the ganache on the top of both cakes. Allow to set and then stack the cakes one on top of the other.

LOW CARB CHOCOLATE BIRTHDAY CAKE

Steps:

• 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°C 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.
