Dairy Free Flourless Keto Chocolate Cake
This is a deliciously rich chocolate cake that is dairy free, grain free, nut free, and completely keto!
This is the cake I make for both mine and Dr. Karl’s birthdays.
It is soooo good and decadent, you will find it hard to believe it is Keto!
Instructions:
Separate the egg yolks and egg whites in separate bowls
Melt the chocolate and cocoa butter in a double boiler (or a bowl over a pan of hot water) stirring until completely melted and combined. Remove from heat.
B
Beat the egg whites until stiff.
Mix vanilla, coconut cream, mayo, and xylitol into the chocolate mixture. The mixture will be grainy at this point.
Add egg yolks one at a time. The batter will be thick and clumpy.
Add the water slowly until the batter becomes smooth.
Add the whippped egg whites 1/3 at a time until well combined.
Pour int spring form pan and bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Once the cake is completely cooled, remove from the spring form pan. I use a canister to help remove the cake.
It is amazing served with my Dairy Free Keto Ice Cream
Enjoy!
Dairy Free Flourless Keto Chocolate Cake
Ingredients
- 200 grams Baking Chocolate Unsweetened
- 80 grams cocoa butter
- 57 grams mayo 1/4 cup
- 120 grams coconut cream 1/2 cup
- 100 grams xylitol 100-200 depending on sweetness preference
- 6 eggs separated whites and yolks
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 Tbsp water 2-3 TBS
- salt pinch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees
- Grease a 7-8" spring form pan. Lining the bottom of the pan with parchment paper aids in removing the cake from the pan
- Melt the cocoa butter and chocolate in a double boiler, stirring until melted and combined. Remove from heat. I use a bowl over a small pan of hot water since I do not have a double boiler.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites and salt until a stiff peak forms. I use an electric hand mixer with a wisk attachment on medium speed.
- Mix in the vanills, coconut cream, mayo, and xylitol into the melted chocolate mixture. The xylitol will make the batter grainy, this is normal.
- Add the egg yolks 1 at a time. The batter will become thick and clumpy.
- Add the water one tablespoon at a time and continue mixing until smooth. I usually need just 2 1/2 TBS so add slowly until the batter is smooth.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the chocolate mixture 1/3 at a time until well combined.
- Pour the batter into the spring form pan and bake for 35-45 minutes depending on your oven and size of pan. A toothpick or cake tester should come out clean when it is done.
- Allow to cool completely before removing from the pan.
- During the baking, the cake will rise but it will deflate when cool. D0 not remove from the pan until the cake is cool.
- Store in refrigerator.
- The cake tastes actually tastes better after a day or so.
