Flourless Chocolate Hazelnut Cake
Believe me when I tell you this is going to be a staple dessert in your home! It not only makes the house smell amazing, my flourless chocolate cake recipe is very easy and there are no almond flour or coconut flour!
My drool-worthy flourless chocolate hazelnut cake is also awesome because it is dairy free! If you are following my protein sparing/30 Day Ketogenic Cleanse protocol for maximum weight loss and healing, this recipe is totally allowed (for a non protein sparing day)!
I do not eat chocolate often but I have a piece of this once a week! I love making this flourless chocolate cake for the holidays! Perfect for a Thanksgiving or Christmas dessert!
I LOVE this flourless chocolate cake! The recipe got even better when I added Further Food NEW hazelnut collagen to this decedent keto cake!

- ½ cup Swerve or Allulose
- 5 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon stevia glycerite (optional)

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8 inch pie pan (or grease a 4 ounce ramekin to make one at a time and store the extra batter in the fridge or freezer).
- Place the baking chocolate and coconut oil in a large heat-safe bowl. Heat in a double boiler (or microwave) until melted.
- Remove from double boiler. Stir in the collagen, sweetener, eggs, stevia. vanilla and salt. Combine until smooth. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking (note: the sweetness will bake off and be less sweet).
- Place the mixture into the prepared pie pan or ramekins. Bake the torte for 25 minutes or until a little jiggly in the center (bake ramekins for 8 minutes or until a little jiggly).
- Remove from heat and enjoy!

Could I do these in small Mason jars (instead of ramekins) and then nuke them as needed?
That might work. 🙂
Due to my dupytrans, apparently collagen makes the nodules in the hands grow at alarming rates, is there something else I could substitute with?
You can omit it and add some hazelnut extract. 🙂
If you use the chocolate collagen instead of the hazelnut, is the taste changed to chocolate? If so, is there a hazelnut flavoring that can be used so it tastes more like hazelnut? Thanks
That should work. Or you can try adding a bit of this.

Do you have to use collagen? Is there a substitute? I’m on a very low carb + protein diet. This looks amazing!
Nothing wrong with protein on a very low carb diet. 🙂
You can try omitting it and using some extract like this if you want.

Thank you! I can’t wait to try these out!
Thanks!
Hi Maria, I’d like to make this today it looks so good. If I use unflavored collagen, do I need to increase the sweetener? Not sure if Hazelnut Collagen has sweetener in it. (I’ll add some extract too for flavor).
Maybe a little more sweetener to taste. 🙂
Should this be stored in the refrigerator?
Yes. 🙂
I used the Primal Kitchen Peanut Butter collagen. This cake was so easy to make and it tasted fantastic! I will definitely make this again. Thank you for so many wonderful recipes!
Awesome!! Thanks!
