Description
This Flourless Keto Chocolate Cake is rich, fudgy, and sugar-free—perfect for keto dieters, diabetics, or anyone cutting carbs. Made with just 3 ingredients, it’s indulgent and effortless.
Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter (or coconut oil)
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-processed)
3 large eggs (room temperature)
1/3 cup monk fruit sweetener (or erythritol)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Pinch of sea salt (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a 6- or 8-inch round pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the sides.
2. Melt butter (or coconut oil) in a saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat and whisk in cocoa powder until smooth.
3. Stir in the monk fruit sweetener, vanilla extract, and sea salt (if using).
4. Let mixture cool slightly, then whisk in eggs one at a time until fully incorporated.
5. Pour batter into prepared pan and tap gently to release air bubbles.
6. Bake for 18–22 minutes until edges are set but center is slightly jiggly.
7. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Refrigerate for 2 hours for best texture.
8. Serve with whipped coconut cream, berries, or dust with cocoa powder.
Notes
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze slices individually.
Do not overbake—cake will firm up as it cools.
Great with a drizzle of sugar-free raspberry sauce or paired with keto ice cream.
