DIED AND WENT TO HEAVEN CHOCOLATE CAKE,DIABETIC VERSION



Died and Went to Heaven Chocolate Cake,diabetic Version image

** PLEASE NOTE: THE WHITE FROSTING IN PHOTO IS NOT PART OF THIS RECIPE PLEASE CONTACT PERSON WHO POSTED THE PHOTO.** Deliciously moist low-sugar chocolate cake, made even more flavorful by the addition of coffee. This is from the Splenda site. Please Note: Splenda Brown Blend is 50% sugar and this recipe uses 1/2 a cup. That's 1/4 cup of sugar in the entire cake. 1/4 cup =4 Tbsp. Splenda Brown has 4g of sugar per tsp =12 g per Tbsp and 48g (1 2/3 oz) in the entire cake. The cake is intended to serve 10. That will give you 4.8g (or 1/8 ounce ounce or 0.169 ounce according to the converter on this site) of sugar per serving. Please decide for yourself if this recipe is safe for you. I, myself, am insulin dependent and I get a higher spike from two slices of 100% whole wheat bread in a sandwich than from a slice of this cake. If you are a brittle diabetic or sensitive to all sugars you may wish to avoid this recipe.

Tips for Baking a Decadent Diabetic Chocolate Cake:

  • Embrace Almond Flour: Almond flour serves as a low-carb alternative to traditional wheat flour, offering a rich nutty flavor and a moist, dense texture to your cake.
  • Sweeten Wisely: Instead of refined sugar, opt for natural sweeteners like stevia or erythritol. These alternatives provide sweetness without spiking blood sugar levels.
  • Bind It Together: Use a combination of eggs and a binder like flax eggs or chia eggs to hold the cake together without compromising its texture.
  • Enhance with Cocoa Powder: Incorporate cocoa powder to intensify the chocolate flavor and add depth to the cake's overall taste profile.
  • Balance with Baking Soda: Baking soda acts as a leavening agent, helping the cake rise and achieve a fluffy texture.
  • Garnish Elegantly: Top your cake with sugar-free chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or a dusting of powdered sweetener for a visually appealing and flavorful finish.

Conclusion:

With its symphony of flavors and textures, this diabetic chocolate cake is a testament to the culinary artistry that can be achieved while adhering to dietary restrictions. The combination of almond flour, natural sweeteners, and rich cocoa powder creates a moist, indulgent cake that satisfies your sweet cravings without compromising your health goals.
