Name: Low-Carb Yellow Cake
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups extra-fine almond flour; 1/4 cup coconut flour; 2 tsp. baking powder; 1/4 tsp salt; 6 tbsp softened butter; 1/2 cup monk-fruit sweetener (with erythritol, I use Lakanto brand); 4 large eggs; 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut almond milk (I use Califa brand); 2 tsp. vanilla; ?1/2 tsp almond extract ?

Description

A sugar-free chocolate frosting that really hits the spot on a lightly sweet yellow cake. Next time we try this I’m thinking of adding a bit more cocoa, or maybe a bit of coffee to deepen the flavor a tad. I think a mocha icing would be quite delicious.

Ingredients

1/2 cup softened butter
2/3- 1 cup powdered Lakanto monkfruit sweetener (to taste)
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
Additional sour cream or whipping cream may be needed if frosting seems to stiff.

Instructions

Beat butter and sweetener until light and fluffy.
Add cocoa powder, sour cream and beat until smooth. Add vanilla and salt.
Taste and adjust, adding more sweetener, cocoa powder, or cream if needed, whether you want a thick, stiff frosting or a thinner icing.
