Ingredients
  

CAKE:

  • 16 large egg whites
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/4 teaspoon Redmond Real salt
  • 1/2 cup allulose
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2/3 cup Further Food Chocolate Collagen or vanilla collagen
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or chocolate extract
  • 2 teaspoons natural red food coloring

CREAM CHEESE FROSTING AND FILLING:

  • 1 1/2   cups Natural Sweetener or allulose
  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 2 8 ounce packages cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract or more vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon Redmond Real salt

OPTIONAL GARNISH:

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 2 8-inch cake pans with parchment paper. Spray well with avocado oil spray. Set aside.
  • In a large clean bowl, whip egg whites with a pinch of salt and the cream of tartar until foamy (save the yolks for "healthified" creme brule, "healthified" coconut custard, OR "healthified" ice cream).
  • Mix on high speed until very stiff (you will be able to put bowl upside down and the whites won't fall out).
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, sift the sweetener, cocoa powder and collagen together and set aside.
  • Once the whites are stiff, gently fold in the cocoa mixture. Add your favorite extract flavor. Stir to combine.
  • Divide the mixture onto the prepared cake pans.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Place the cakes into the fridge to cool. Can be frozen for up to a month.
  • Carefully slice the cakes in half widthwise so you have 4 cake layers.
  • To make the frosting. Using a hand mixer, beat the sweetener, butter, softened cream cheese in a medium-sized bowl until smooth. Add the extracts, lemon juice and salt; beat until well combined. Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking.
  • Place one layer of cooled cake onto a serving platter. Spread 1/3 of the frosting over the layer. Repeat with remaining layers. Frost the outside of the red velvet cake with the cream cheese frosting.
  • Top with The Good chocolate curls (click HERE).
