Yummy Keto dark chocolate perfect to celebrate your friends birthday and any other occasion - Almond Flour Cake
Equipment
- Bowls
- Blender
- Spoon
Ingredients
- 30 gm Hersheys Dark Unsweetened Cocoa
- 200 gm Urban Platter Almond Flour
- 1 Cup or 100gms of sweetener, according to taste, 1 have used Magic Leaf ,
- 1 Pinch of salt
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 150 ml Olive oil
- 3 Large Eggs
For the Icing
- 200 gm Mooz Mascarpone Cheese
- 10 gm Davidoff Coffee
- 30 gm Amul Whipping Cream
- 5 gm Sweetener
Instructions
- Start by taking 3 mixing bowls.
- Boil 150ml of water and sift the cocoa while the water boils.
- Add the hot water to a bowl, add the cocoa and stir till dissolved completely.
- Keep it aside and let it cool.
- In the second bowl add the flour, salt and baking powder and mix well.
- In the third bowl or a blender mix together the olive oil, eggs and sweetener till the foam becomes pale yellow in colour. You can also whisk it by hand like I did.
- Slowly add the cocoa solution and keep blending well.
- Now add the almond flour mixture and combine everything together.
- Ensure you preheat your oven to 170°C or 325ºF, for about 8 mins. Grease an 8-inch baking pan with a little oil and keep it ready.
- Pour the mixture into the pan and first bake for 30mins at 180 degrees Celsius. Check with a toothpick at 25 mins and ensure that the cake is not over baked.
- I had added the slivered Almonds at 15mins and by the time they reached the 30mins mark they were nice and toasted.
- My cake was moist at 30mins so I baked it for another ten mins at 200 degrees Celsius.
- Either serve the cake while still warm or wait for it to cool before you start icing it.
- For the icing I whipped together the Mascarpone Cheese and a little Amul cream.
- I also added some Davidoff coffee and very little sweetener to it, to give it the perfect coffee taste.
- After the icing the done I allowed the cake to settle and cool overnight, before serving the next day.
