Flourless Chocolate Cake

I found this recipe online and it is amazing. It takes 5 minutes to put together and 14 to bake. It doesn’t require a mixer. All you need is a spoon. I have to keep making it because it is so good that we crave it. I serve it with whipped cream or just chocolate syrup. Or just eat it by itself. Since I add almonds and powdered sugar to the top sometimes, it doesn’t need anything else. 

 

This rich and decadent chocolate keto cake is shockingly delicious and secretly low-carb.

Tips

*For a double layer cake, simply double the recipe and bake in two 8-inch pans.

Flourless Chocolate CakeServed with whipped cream and garnished with berries  is the way to go. I don’t think it needs frosting.

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Step 2

Grease an 8-inch pan, and line with parchment.  I’ve made it without it when I have run out and, if you grease the pan generously, it shouldn’t stick.

Step 3

Stir all ingredients together very well, then spread into the pan. If needed, use a second sheet of parchment to smooth down. 

Step 4

Bake 14 minutes on the center rack (some ovens require more baking time, so continue cooking until firm, if needed).

Step 5

Let cool completely. We don’t frost it, but you are welcome to.

Total Time 5 minutes to prep and 14 minutes to bake.
