Satisfy your cravings without sacrificing your conscience with a recipe that’s oil-free and 100% keto-friendly—and can easily be made gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan, should you choose! It’s deliciously dense and flavorsome and is guaranteed to top even your traditional sugar-and-flour desserts.

Keto Chocolate Cake Second

If you thought a keto chocolate cake would be more difficult and less delicious than a non-keto-friendly one, think again! This recipe calls for just 8 ingredients and takes less than 15 minutes to cook, with only one step of preparation. Simply gather all of your ingredients, mix them thoroughly, and bake.

Once your fudgey chocolate cake is out of the oven, you’ll need to let it rest and cool off. In the interim, it’s frosting time! After all, what would a rich and dense keto chocolate cake be without a sugar-free, light, and creamy keto frosting? It’ll take but a minute to whip up: combine all the required ingredients and stir until the frosting is nice and smooth (then you can lick the spoon clean).

Do you simply need more of this wondrously dense and moist keto chocolate cake in your life? We don’t blame you—in fact, we have the solution. Double this recipe and bake in two separate tins. Combine your cakes into a double-layered tower of decadence, with a delicious layer of chocolate frosting between and of course another on the top. Slice yourself a generous guilt-free piece, and enjoy!
