- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup coconut oil
- ⅔ cup sour cream
- 1 cup almond flour approx. 96 g
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour approx. 15 g

DARK CHOCOLATE FROSTING OR GANACHE

COFFEE (MOCHA) WHIPPED CREAM

- 1 cup cold heavy cream
- 2 tablespoon swerve confectioner’s sweetner

Instructions
CAKE
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spray an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, sweetener, and vanilla until thickened.
- Whisk in vegetable oil, followed by sour cream, mixing well after each addition.
- Sift in almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking powder and salt. Gently fold until well incorporated.
- Smooth batter into prepared pan then bake at 350 degrees F for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted at the centre comes out clean.
- Allow it to cool in a pan for 15minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
DARK CHOCOLATE GANACHE
- Heat heavy cream in a pan until hot but not boiling.
- Place the dark chocolate chips in a bowl and pour over the hot heavy cream.
- Spread the chocolate ganache on top of the cooled cake. Serve with the coffee (mocha) whipped cream below.
COFFEE (MOCHA) WHIPPED CREAM - OPTIONAL
- Combine sweetener, espresso powder, vanilla and heavy cream in a bowl. Whisk with a hand mixer until peaks form.
- Serve with the cake and enjoy!
Notes
- As tempting as it may be, using almond meal just won't result in the same results. Blanched almond flour gives the best results.
- Let the cake cool before crowning it with the keto chocolate frosting or ganache
