Instructions
Sugar-Free Flourless Chocolate Fudge Cake

- Divide the Sugar-Free Flourless Chocolate Fudge Cake into 2 greased and lined cake tins.
- Bake at 180C/350F for 25 minutes. Please adjust the time according to your oven and whether you are using fan bake, fan forced, regular convection etc.
Sugar-Free Chocolate Fudge Frosting
- Place the softened cream cheese into a mixing bowl, pour the melted butter on top. Mix until smooth.
- Add the powdered sweetener, cocoa, vanilla and salt. Mix until smooth.
- Add double/heavy cream, 1 tablespoon at a time until you reach the thickness of chocolate fudge frosting that you desire.
Notes
- The coffee is not enough to make this a mocha cake, it is there to enhance and amplify the chocolate fudge flavour.
- For the coffee, you can use a good espresso or use 2 tbsp instant coffee dissolved in 1/3 cup of hot water.
- If you overheat your cream cheese when making the fudge frosting, it will become very sloppy and runny. Simply pop it into the fridge to solidify for 1-3 minutes.
- The nutrition is for 1 double layer sugar-free flourless chocolate fudge cake with frosting. To reduce the carb value, you can reduce how much frosting you require or enjoy just one layer at a time.
