Cream

  2. Beat everything together until nice and creamy then add the cocoa powder.Cream-cheese-cream-gp-3-SunCakeMom
  3. Mix in the cocoa powder slowly otherwise it will be everywhere in the kitchen.Cream-cheese-cream-gp-4-SunCakeMom

Assembly

  1. Slice up the cooled off cake. It should have a somewhat moist appearance due to the large amount of batter in the smallish baking form. For drier cake bake the layers separately.Keto-chocolate-cake-recipe-Process-9-SunCakeMom
  2. Divide the cream into 3 parts and spread one part of the cream on top of the bottom layer. Use the most uneven layer for the bottom part.Keto-chocolate-cake-recipe-Process-12-SunCakeMom
  3. Use the smoothest layer for the top. Sometimes this means to use the bottom of the cake on top.Keto-chocolate-cake-recipe-Process-13-SunCakeMom
  4. Spread another third of  the cream on top.Keto-chocolate-cake-recipe-Process-14-SunCakeMom
  5. Divide the last third into two and spread one half on the side of the cake.Keto-chocolate-cake-recipe-Process-15-SunCakeMom

    It is delicious! ;D
    Ø6½” / Ø16.5cm Springform is the one. The batter tends to stick to it so cut the cake around before opening it.
