LOW CARB ITALIAN CREAM CAKE

Some recipes make me do the happy dance. And this keto Italian Cream Cake is one of those recipes. I really am quite excited to bring this one to you today as it is seriously fantastic. I rank it up there among my best cake recipes, easily.

So here’s the deal. As most of you know, I’ve been hard at work on a keto dessert cookbook. Easy Keto Desserts will be coming out on July 3rd and I am so excited about that one. Because let’s be honest, that’s where my heart lies. Creating healthy low carb desserts just makes me happy. And apparently it makes a lot of you happy too. But the recipes in that book are, obviously, on the “easier” side of things. They are delicious treats you can whip up without a whole lot of effort and without getting out every pan and whisk in your kitchen. They are still creative and innovative, but they aren’t overly complicated.

Ingredients

• Cake
• 1/2 cup butter softened
• 1 cup Swerve Sweetener
• 4 large eggs room temperature, separated
• 1/2 cup heavy cream room temperature
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups almond flour
• 1/2 cup shredded coconut
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans
• 1/4 cup coconut flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
• Frosting
• 8 ounces cream cheese softened
• 1/2 cup butter softened
• 1 cup powdered Swerve Sweetener
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream room temperature
• Garnish
• 2 tbsp shredded coconut lightly toasted
• 2 tbsp chopped pecans lightly toasted

Instructions

1. Cake
2. Preheat the oven to 325F and grease 8 inch or 9 inch round cake pans very well (the 8 inch pans will take a little longer to cook but the layers will be higher and I think they will look better). Line the pans with parchment paper and grease the paper. 
3. In a large bowl, beat the butter with the sweetener until well combined. Beat in the egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Beat in the heavy cream and vanilla extract.
4. In another bowl, whisk together the almond flour, shredded coconut, chopped pecans, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Beat into the butter mixture until just combined.
