We made this on my Ezme's third birthday a couple weeks ago, and it was delicious. Mom had two slices, didn't workout that day, and actually lost 2 lbs the next morning. With minimal effect on blood sugar it's a great option for special occasions; Minnie Mouse ears optional.
Magically Moist Almond Cake
¾ cup unsalted Butter
1 cup of Coconut Sugar
4 Eggs
½ cup Whole Milk
1 tsp Vanilla
1 ½ cups Bob’s Red Mill Almond Meal/Flour
½ cup Organic Coconut Flour
¼ tsp Salt
2 tsp Baking Powder
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13-inch cake pan.
Cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Add in eggs, one
at a time, and beat until fully blended. Add milk and vanilla; mix
until combined. In a separate bowl, combine flours, salt and baking
powder. Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients. Beat until
creamy. Spread batter in prepared pan and back for 30 minutes.
Serve with fresh fruit and/or whipped cream.
Whipped Cream Frosting
1 cup of Heavy Cream
1 scoop Chocolate Quest Protein Powder
(Note: Can use any flavor of the Quest protein powder that you
prefer. Optionally can add 1 tsp vanilla or 1 tablespoon of coconut
sugar to sweeten.)
Beat the cream and protein powder together until very stiff. Should
have the consistency of a thick mousse. Use to frost the almond
cake or serve as a mousse with berries.
