Keto Texas Sheet Cake

Just because a dessert doesn't gluten or sugar, doesn't mean it can't be good. This chocolate layer cake is rich, decadent and fudgy. And the chocolately cream cheese frosting makes it one of our new favorite Keto desserts﻿—ever!

Keto Chocolate Cake

Cooking spray

c. coconut flour

c. flaxseed meal

baking powder

baking soda

kosher salt

c. (1 stick) butter, softened

c. keto friendly granulated sugar (such as Swerve)

pure vanilla extract

almond milk

c. strong brewed coffee

(8-oz.) blocks of cream cheese, softened

c. keto friendly powdered sugar (such as Swerve)

c. unsweetened cocoa powder

instant coffee powder

So wanted to love this cake. I ignored the mixed reviews and made it anyway. I followed the exact directions and the frosting had a weird texture.  This cake is dry and doesn’t taste very chocolatey or good. I made it for my birthday and my kids wouldn’t eat more than one bite. We threw the rest away. I’m so sorry. I don’t want to be mean. I just want people to know my experience.

Not sure how keto it is but it was delightful.
I used chia seed instead of flaxseed meal

I followed this cake recipe exactly and my batter was so thick and chunky. I had to scoop it into the pans because I couldn’t pour it. Is it supposed to be like that? Somehow it ended up tasting ok, the cake is a little crumbly but I know I didn’t over bake it. I saw someone else say they added some sour cream to the batter and I think that might make it more moist.  I made a vanilla cream cheese frosting instead of the chocolate one. I didn’t use any coconut flour. Just the cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, about a Tbs of vanilla and about 2-3 tablespoons of heavy cream and I’m very pleased with the frosting. Overall I’m satisfied with the cake because it is edible and won’t be wasted, but I don’t plan on making this recipe again

Loved it.  Not too sweet and wonderfully chocolaty. Easy to make. I haven’t bake a cake in decades but was missing something sweet on my keto diet. Thanks.

Served it at a dinner party and everyone licked their plates! Very moist, not crumbly. Frosting wasn’t stiff... moist and rich. Kind of oozed down over the sides. Yes, decadent! When I make it again I want to try margarine not oil or butter, and a snort of vanilla in the frosting.  A real keeper.

This was awful. I followed the directions exactly and am pretty savvy when it comes to baking. I was very upset with the results. It has an AWFUL after taste.

I added 3 tbsp olive oil and the cake was to die for ( cupcakes) I bought a sugar free frosting so can't comment on it but all of my family including kids and my DM2 hubby LOVED it

This was hands down the grossest dessert  I’ve ever put into my mouth. I followed the directions to a T. I made it for my girlfriend who’s on keto and she couldn’t even swallow it and spit it into the toilet. If you like dirt cake, this is the recipe for you.

Horrible the cake is Trash if I was stranded on an island and my choices were live and eat this cake or starve and die I would starve.

Best chocolate cake ever . I made it for my family once and they begge me to make more . One is pre diabetic, diabetic and two are on a dite including me

The ultimate keto chocolate cake recipe! This decadent, fudgy cake is really easy to make and requires only 5 ingredients.

This is hands-down the most decadent keto chocolate cake you will ever make. Filled with creamy chocolate pudding, this low carb cake recipe takes inspiration from the famous Brooklyn Blackout Cake. Definitely worthy of a special occasion!

Keto Chocolate Blackout Cake Recipe

heavy whipping cream

almond milk (Or another low carb milk)

tbsp Swerve Granular ((or other granular sweetener))

tbsp allulose

tsp glucomannan (or xanthan gum)

recipe Keto Devil's Food Cake ((just the cake, without frosting))

chocolate (chopped)

butter (softened)

cream cheese (softened)

Swerve Confectioners ((or other powdered sweetener))

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream, milk, and sweetener. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.

In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth.  Slowly add ½ cup of the hot cream mixture into the egg yolks, whisking continuously.

Slowly whisk the tempered egg yolks back into the saucepan of hot cream. Reduce heat to medium low and sprinkle with xanthan gum, whisking continuously.

Stir in the cocoa powder and cook until mixture thickens, 3 to 4 minutes, whisking continuously. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract until smooth.

Pour into a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours.

Pudding

Prepare the cake layers according to the instructions in the Devil&#39;s Food Cake recipe.

Let cool completely, then carefully slice each layer through the middle into two thin layers. (Tip: If you make the cake layers ahead of time, a few hours in the fridge help them firm up enough to slice more easily. Wrap them in plastic so they don&#39;t dry out).

Cake

Place the chopped chocolate in a microwave safe bowl and melt in 30 second increments, stirring in between until smooth. Alternatively, you can melt the chocolate and butter together in a heat-proof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Set aside to cool to lukewarm.

In a large bowl, beat the butter and the cream cheese together until smooth. Beat in the powdered sweetener and the cocoa powder until well combined.

Add the chocolate and vanilla extract and beat until smooth. The mixture will be very thick at this point. Add the cream a few tablespoons at a time until a spreadable consistency is achieved.

Frosting

Place one layer of cake on a cake platter and pipe a ring of chocolate frosting around the outside edge. This creates a barrier to keep the pudding from oozing out. Spread half of the pudding inside the ring of frosting.

Add another layer of cake on top and repeat with a ring of frosting and the pudding. Top with a 3rd layer of cake.

Spread the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting. If you want to make a swirl on top of the cake, place the cake on a turntable. Hold a spoon to the center of the frosted top and turn the cake. Move the spoon outward from the center as you turn.

Take the final layer of cake and crumble it up. Carefully press some of the crumbs into the sides of the cake (you will probably only use about half of the crumbs).

Refrigerate one hour to firm up before slicing.

To assemble

This is the ultimate keto chocolate cake recipe! It&#039;s moist and rich, with deep chocolate flavor. And you can make it totally dairy free too. Or not. That&#039;s up to you!

espresso powder ((optional))

mayonnaise

dairy free cream cheese (softened)

full fat coconut milk

Preheat the oven to 350F and grease two 8-inch round cake pans. Line the bottoms of the pans with parchment and grease the parchment.

In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, sweetener, cocoa powder, baking powder, espresso powder, and salt.

Stir in the mayonnaise, eggs, water, and vanilla extract until well combined. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and spread to the edges and smooth the tops.

Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until the cakes are just firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pans for at least 20 minutes, then flip out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Peel off the parchment paper.

Place the chocolate and 1 tbsp of the coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl. Melt on high in 30 second increments, stirring in between, until smooth. Allow to cool to lukewarm. Alternatively, you can melt in a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water.

Place the remaining coconut oil in a large bowl. If it is very hard, microwave it for 15 seconds or so. It should be softe enough to beat without being melted. Add the cream cheese and beat until smooth. Add the sweetener and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.

Drizzle in the melted chocolate and beat again until smooth. Add the coconut milk a few tablespoons at a time until a spreadable consistency is achieved.

Dairy Free Frosting

Place one layer of cake on a large plate or cake platter. Top with one third of the frosting, spreading to the edges.

Gently place the second layer of cake on top and spread the top with another third of the frosting.

Spread the the sides with the remaining frosting.

Hi Carolyn
I made this cake and the icing. The cake turned out quite nice but the icing was disappointing. I think the coconut oil I used wasnt the best choice and it seemed like the amount was just too much. It was virgin and organic so I thought it would be fine. On the recepe I Clicked on your coconut oil and it would not direct me to where it was suppose to go. I got a warning page and it would not let me open it. So, could you just tell me what coconut oil you use for this icing? I really want to make this again and succeed! Ive never encountered a problem with any of your cheesecakes but this cake. just looks and sounds so good. I did buy the online cookbook that contains your recipe for your mayonnaise that I emailed you about recently.

This is genius, what a fab idea using mayo, who would have thought right? This is now my go-to cake for home and entertaining. I make it in a big pyrex dish and it feeds a crowd! Thank you so much for the great recipe

I made this cake for church potluck with your chocolate buttercream frosting for the people who couldn’t have sugar or gluten. It was a big hit! Every crumb was eaten. Even people who can have sugar and gluten were eating it! It’s getting to where everyone is eating the keto desserts I take, whether they are diabetic or not! Your recipes are amazing. Terrific idea to do a keto mayo cake! So moist. Thank you!

The only Keto Chocolate Cake Recipe you will ever need! It’s moist and rich, with deep chocolate flavor. And you can make it totally dairy free too.

It's one of my most popular keto cakes, and with good reason. Mayonnaise provides incredible moisture and tenderness. Don't knock it until you've tried it!
