Toasted Coconut Frosted KETO Layer Cake Recipe
Recipe:
Bullet A: Duncan Hines Keto Friendly Class Yellow Cake with Keto Toasted Coconut Frosting
Macros for one slice of birthday cake:
#4 grams net carbs per slice
# 1 gram of sugar per slice
#11 grams of fat per slice
# 5 grams of protein per slice
The cake mix requires 3 eggs, 1/2 cup warm water, and 3 tablespoons of melted coconut oil. Mix together. I weighed and divided 2.8 pounds of cake batter into two parchment-lined 9-inch circle cake pans. Bake for 24 minutes at 350 degrees.
I let them cool and shifted them into the freezer to firm up for ten minutes before I flipped them out of their pans.
Bullet B: My Fabulous Homemade Keto Frosting:
Using the mixer paddle, combine till smooth:
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 ounces softened low-fat cream cheese.
4 tablespoons coconut milk
1 1/2 to 2 cups of Swerve Confectioner's sugar
I spread way too much frosting on the cakes. #lessismore #healthierbaking101
Bullet C: Toasted coconut topping:
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a cast iron skillet.
Add 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Add 1 teaspoon sugar alternative (optional).
1 cup of unsweetened coconut flakes.
Stir till brown.
I moved this concoction into the toaster oven and broiled it, too, so it was golden brown. Please watch carefully as it will quickly burn.
Bullet D: Frost between and on top of the yellow Keto cakes.
Liberally, sprinkle the toasted coconut in the top layer.
Bullet E: Add tall birthday candles, light them, and wish your beloved ones a beautiful Happy Birthday.
Today's cake tip is:
Honestly, one small piece is sufficient; I ate two bites. We plan to cut the cake into slices and freeze the pieces. It seemed -over -the -top sweet.
Yet, compared to a Costco Cake, this cake rises to the top with more healthy ingredients and less unhealthy ones.
