Working in an office, there is always a birthday celebration it seems every week! Of course I sit right next to the table where the cake is presented, and it smells delicious! Being on day 20 of my Keto lifestyle, I knew I needed a way to fight this head on! Therefore here is my KetoCake in chocolate! This recipe is easily doubled or tripled if you want to make more. I brought in extra for others to try who don't know about Keto, and they absolutely loved it.
