Keto Chocolate Roll Cake

Keto Recipes > Keto Dessert Recipes

When I was a kid, my mom usually packed my lunch box with snacks and sweets that I could finish the day off with. From oatmeal cookies to honey buns, there was always tons of sugar packed inside. Well…now I guess I know why I gained so much weight in my childhood 😉

One of the things I still remember, though, are those little Swiss Cakes from Little Debbie. Lately, I’ve been thinking about them more and more, wanting to recreate them…but elevate them in flavor and bring them over to the keto world. Instead of making a bunch of snack cakes, I decided to make one large roll that I could slice off and eat as I wanted (and eat, I did).

Although these aren’t packed full of sugar like the little snack cakes I was craving, they do pack an awesome sweet and rich flavor. The chocolate cake encompasses a delicious cream cheese filling that’s the perfect way to get added fats into your diet. Who can go wrong with cream cheese and butter?

I think next time I’m going to do a vanilla only based cake with a strawberry chia seed jam filling on the inside. Can’t wait!
