When it comes to our favorite low carb cake recipes, this keto mug cake, lemon keto vanilla cake, keto cheesecake, keto carrot cake and this keto chocolate cake are our absolute favorite. Everyone needs an amazing chocolate cake recipe in their back-pocket when that chocolate craving hits.
I’ve been meaning to make a flourless chocolate cake keto, after making a vegan flourless chocolate cake and a zucchini chocolate cake . Flourless keto chocolate cakes have a different texture. As it is made with no flour and no grains, it can be a little heavier and less fluffy. However, it is just as delicious.
The reason we use almond flour for our low carb mug cake recipe is because it is easier to use than coconut flour and milder in flavor. However, if you don’t like almond flour or have allergies, you can absolutely use coconut flour.
A cake stand is helpful for frosting – it allows you to rotate your keto friendly chocolate cake as you frost it. Frost the flat parts first, then the sides. Start by frosting the flat top of the bottom layer, then add the top layer and frost that. Finally, finish with the sides. I usually go back to check on any imperfections at the end.
