KETO CAKE POPS

INGREDIENTS : 

 

For the Cake:

6 Eggs
1/2 Cup Fat free cream cheese
1/3 Cup Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (Low Carb)
1/3 Cup + 3 Tbsp Coconut Flour
1 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)
1 Tsp Vanilla
1 Tsp Baking Powder

For the Frosting: 

3 Tbsp fat free Cream Cheese
3 Tbsp almond milk
1 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

For the Coating:

1 1/2 Cups Low Carb Chocolate (Lily’s) or choc zero chips or bake believe
1 1/2 Tbsp Coconut Oil

 

DIRECTIONS :

 

1. Preheat oven to 325 F. In a blender, mix the eggs and cream cheese until very well blended. Add the protein powder, coconut flour, vanilla and baking powder to the blender. Blend until fully combined.

 

2. Grease the bottom and sides of a cake pan with butter, then pour the cake batter into the pan. Use a spoon to spread the batter evenly in the pan. Then bake for 18 – 20 minutes or until a tooth pic comes out clean. Set aside to cool.

 

3. In a small bowl mix the cream cheese, almond milk and sweetener. Then crumble the cooled cake into a large mixing bowl. Make sure the cake is completely crumbled. Add the frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until completely combined.

 

4. Cover a plate or tray with parchment paper. Then make small 2 Tbsp balls out of the cake mixture. (Firmly Press into a ball shape then gently press into a nice round shape with your fingers. If they crack, gently press back together.) Place the balls onto the covered plate. Place the cake balls in the freezer for 10 -15 minutes or in the fridge for an hour.

 

5. Melt the low carb chocolate with the coconut oil. Then gently make holes in the cake pop with the stick or a tooth pick. Dip the tip of the stick in the chocolate then poke them into the cake pops. Place in the fridge for a few minutes or until the chocolate sets.

 

6. Dip the cake pops in the chocolate and place it back on the parchment paper to set, or if you have a piece of styrofoam you can place the cake pops upright poked into the styrofoam. Placing the finished cake pops in the fridge for a few minutes will help the set faster.
