Ingredients

Bottom Layer
  • 3 tbsp coconut flour
  • ¼ cup powdered erythritol
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp beef gelatin optional
  • 8 tbsp butter room temperature
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
Top Layer

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Grease an 8-inch spring form pan (or our preferred way - 3-4 4" pans) with coconut oil spray. Prep pans well - this will prevent sticking.
  3. BOTTOM LAYERAdd the butter, vanilla extract and eggs into a large mixing bowl and combine using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
  4. Add the coconut flour, erythritol, baking powder and optionally the gelatin, and combine using a spatula.
  5. Set aside.
  6. TOP LAYERIn a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and cream cheese using a hand mixer.
  7. Add in the vanilla extract, erythritol, stevia and eggs, and combine with the hand mixer until smooth.
  8. CAKEForm the bottom layer (effectively the cake's "crust") into the bottom of the spring form pan using your hands. 
  9. Pour the top layer on top of the crust layer and give it a few taps to release the air bubbles.
  10. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes.
  11. Your cake is ready to cool when you notice the sides are browning.
  12. Cool for 15-20 minutes to let cake set before removing from pans or moving around too much.
  13. Serve and enjoy!
