  • The best flourless chocolate cake recipe! With just 5 ingredients it's easy, ultra decadent, gluten-free, paleo, low carb and keto friendly. It's also light and fluffy and not overly dense like most flourless chocolate cake recipes.
    What are the ingredients in flourless chocolate cake? It's just semi-sweet chocolate, butter, eggs, coconut sugar and espresso powder.
    I use coconut sugar instead of processed white sugar for a natural, unrefined sugar. But you could also use maple syrup. If you do use maple syrup, the end result won't have the crackle on top (as maple syrup has more moisture) and it'll be slightly sweeter. The coconut sugar version will have a more cake-like texture, the maple syrup one a lighter texture.
    For those following a low carb or keto diet, you can substitute a keto-friendly sugar like monkfruit. Enjoy!

    Hi guys! After recipe testing this flourless chocolate cake for the last several weeks, I'm happy to finally share it with you! In addition to being gluten-free, it's a great recipe for those with nut allergies as there's no almond flour (or alternative flours) in this recipe. It's perfect for the holidays and I hope your family and friends love it as much as mine do. What would you top on your version? Let me know! xo - Lisa

    Looks so yummy! May I suggest something? When the cake is done cooking shut your oven off and open the door a little and leave it in there for an hour. It may stop it from deflating and cracking....I do this for other things that I make and I am thinking it may work for this too. I am so thankful for you and all that you do for us. Even my husband loves many of your recipes.

    • @Downshiftology
      @Downshiftology  Před 5 lety +26

      Yes, that definitely helps with recipes like meringues and pavlovas. I don't mind the cracking, but it's worth a try if you'd like a little more lift in your cake. :) Glad you and your husband love my recipes Lyn! x

      Unfortunately it doesn't work guys (I wish it did tho 😔) I tried making this a few months ago and that's how I found out that it didn't work, not for me anyway, but that was a very smart idea to come up with! Other than that it was sooooo gooood y'all!!!!!!! 🤤🤤🤤🤤 I had a grandma and an 8 y/o to eat this and they both said it was BETTER than regular cake; even my man that hates regular cake said it was delicious and I could NOT believe it. 😀 Did a good job ma'am 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
      Edit: we didn't even use icing either, just sifted some powdered sugar on top! So good that it didn't even need icing 😋
