flourless chocolate cake
I have a great recipe (Not low carb) for flourless chocolate cake. I want to make it for company and am trying to convert it to low carb. the only ingredient that is a problem is the semi sweet chocolate. It calls for 1lb. I am assuming that I can use unsweetened bakers chocolate in its place but don't know how much sweetener to add. I am assuming I need to add splenda because it gets baked. Anyone know? I hope so...........
thanks in advance, :confused: stacey |
There's a cake that's quite similar over at the Low Carb Luxury website. I would replace the water called for with whipping cream.

Thanks Karen, that is so similar to the original recipe. I do them in small ramekins so they are like individual souffles. I hope they turn out good tomorrow so when they think I am off program with this decadent meal I am serving, I can educate them!!!!

good chocolate
Hi, Karen.
About that chocolate cake--and any other recipe that calls for unsweetened chocolate: Can you/should you use less than the amount called for when you use a high-quality unsweetened chocolate like Callebaut? I picked some up at Galloway's and find it quite wonderfully INTENSE. By the way, had first meal ever at Fish House on Saturday at lunch. The swordfish was divine and the German's chocolate cheesecake was great! Thanks. Anny |

Thanks, Karen! I really wouldn't have thought of that aspect ("setting power"). Oooh, cocoa butter--sounds like another quest. If you have a chance, maybe you could give me tips on where to get it around Vanc.--probably not Safeway, eh? Maybe Gourmet Warehouse? Famous Foods?
Will definitely ask for you next time I'm at the Fish House (although staff looked incredibly BUSY!). Looking forward to meeting you at the dinner November 6th, anyway. :sunny: |
