Flourless Chocolate Cake

Group: alt.support.diet.low-carb Date: Thu, Jun 30, 2005, 2:55pm (EDT-3)
From: (Pharby)

This is one the simplest desserts to make, nice and dense, makes 2
servings at around 6 grams carbs per serving.
Ingredients:
1/4C Almond flour
2 T Cocoa Powder
1/4 t Baking Powder
5 packets of Splenda 5 (3 T + 1 t)
2 T Melted Butter(or sour cream or Virgin coconut oil) I use olive oil
and it works just fine.
1 T Water (or DaVinci's Syrup- any flavor-Hazlenut is great!) 1 Egg
Cooking Instructions:
Mix everything in a 2 cup glass measuring Pyrex and cover with plastic
wrap. Cut a small slit in the center of the wrap to vent. Pop in the
microwave for 1-3 minutes max(check consistency after 1 min,, should
look dryish). No greasing of the Pyrex cup is needed. Mine plopped right
out. Let cool completely or eat it hot!
Serving Suggestions:
Serve topped with a cream cheese icing or a dollop of heavy cream
whipped.
Enjoy! This cake is super easy and super yummy! 6 carbs for the entire
recipe

Sounds good, but at a whopping 500+ calories, you might want to only
have HALF of it at a time.

for those not triggered by cake substitutes!

This is good too, with the obvious substitution.

Please do!

Well by golly, I guess they WERE brownies! Anyway - here's the recipe
(which I haven't yet tried):

1/2 c unsweetened cocoa powder (8g)
4 oz. jar prunes (32g)
3 egg whites (0)
1 c. Splenda (24g)
1 t. salt (0)
1 t. vanilla (0)
1/2 c. almond flour (2g)
1/4 c. chopped nuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8-inch square baking
pan with cooking spray. Combine all ingredients. Add nuts
if desired. Bake about 30 minutes or until springy to touch.
Cool on rack, and cut into 16 pieces.

JC, the 3 minute "cake" does not make me fat and I have never been fat.
I'm a diabetic and don't have the "carb cravings" some other folks
suffer from.

Why do you bother with JC. Don't you know he is mentally challenged and
will never leave. He has been here for years saying the same things over
and over again. His IQ is around 60.

LOL I'm beginning to see what you mean about JC. I hope you enjoy the
cake. I know I do
