Here’s one of my favorite, sweet-tooth satisfying desert that won’t wreck your new AskDrErnst healthy habits.   NOTE: When consuming deserts, remember to keep them within your feasting period.  This is not something to have when fasting (before 12 noon or after 8pm).

Dark Chocolate Cake

• 1 1/2 cup ground almond flour
• 1 tsp powered stevia (6-8 drops liquid stevia)
• 1/3 cup raw cocoa powder
• 1/2 tsp celtic sea salt
• 1 tsp aluminum free baking soda
• 1 tbps apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
• splash of coconut water

Thoroughly mix all ingredients and place into a 8×8″ baking pan.   Bake for 20 min @ 350F or until a fork/knife comes out clean.  Cool before cutting.

Vanilla Cream

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/4 tsp powered stevia (2-4 drops liquid stevia)

Use a hand mixer to cream all ingredients thoroughly.

Assembly

Cut the chocolate cake into desired shapes (small squares or circles) and place into a glass cup.  Add dollops of vanilla cream then and various berries (blackberry, blueberry, strawberry) for perfect layered presentation.  Garnish with Raw Cocoa Nibs if desired.
