Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
  • 2 cups Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
  • 6 large Eggs (at room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup Coconut milk beverage (liquid kind from carton, not canned; at room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup Sour cream
  • 1/2 tbsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups Wholesome Yum Coconut Flour
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp Sea salt
  • 3 1/2 cups Keto buttercream frosting (prepared according to recipe for 18 servings)
  • 1 cup Unsweetened coconut flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C). Line the bottoms of two 9-inch springform pans with parchment paper for easy cake removal.
  2. In a large bowl, use a hand mixer on medium speed to beat the softened butter and Besti sweetener together for 3 minutes until the mixture is light in color and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time to ensure they are fully incorporated. Then mix in the coconut milk, sour cream, and vanilla extract until the batter is smooth.
  4. Beat in the coconut flour, baking powder, and sea salt carefully until the mixture forms a smooth batter without lumps.
  5. Evenly divide the batter between the two prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula. Bake for about 20 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through baking to ensure even cooking. The cakes are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the cake layers to cool completely in the pans before removing them to avoid breaking.
  7. Make the keto buttercream frosting according to the recipe instructions, adjusting the recipe to yield 3 1/2 cups for frosting the cake.
  8. Place one cooled cake layer on a cake stand. Spread 3/4 cup of frosting evenly on top. Place the second cake layer over the first and frost with another 3/4 cup of frosting. Finally, frost the sides of the cake using the remaining frosting.
  9. For an added texture and flavor, toast the unsweetened coconut flakes in a large skillet over medium heat for about 2 minutes until golden brown. Use the toasted coconut to decorate the top and sides of the frosted cake.

Notes

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
  • Store any leftover cake in an airtight container.
  • Use gluten-free coconut flour for a gluten-free option.
