Ingredients (Serves 8)
• 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips or chopped sugar-free dark chocolate
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup powdered erythritol (or your favorite keto-friendly sweetener)
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• Optional toppings: sugar-free whipped cream, fresh berries, or a dusting of cocoa powder
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven:
• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 7- or 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Melt the Chocolate and Butter:
• In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, melt the sugar-free chocolate and butter together until smooth. Stir well and let it cool slightly.
3. Prepare the Batter:
• In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, powdered sweetener, vanilla extract, and salt until combined.
• Gradually whisk in the melted chocolate mixture.
• Sift in the cocoa powder and gently fold until fully incorporated.
4. Bake the Cake:
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the center is just set but still slightly fudgy. Be careful not to overbake.
5. Cool and Serve:
• Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before removing. Chill in the refrigerator for an hour for a denser texture if desired.
• Serve with sugar-free whipped cream, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or fresh berries for garnish.
