KETO DEATH BY CHOCOLATE CAKE

If you have as big of a sweet tooth as I do, you’re probably in the same boat. The good news for us is delicious chocolate is easier to come by than you might think on a keto diet. Of course we’re not talking Hershey’s Bars, or some of the other brands that are loaded with sugar…as low carb dieting becomes more and more popular, the options have been exploding.

This cake is the chocolatiest creation I’ve baked up so far. It’s rich, moist, and wonderfully decadent. Best of all, it’s simple, and the ingredients won’t have you running all over town to find.
