A simple and moist chocolate cake recipe that is low in carbohydrates.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup erythritol
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and erythritol until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the almond milk and heavy cream. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
