Description

Delight in these charming teacakes, each one a perfectly portioned indulgence ideal for satisfying your sweet cravings. Whether enjoyed after dinner or as a delightful accompaniment to tea or coffee, these teacakes offer a moment of pure pleasure. The red velvet cake batter is expertly crafted, incorporating airy whipped egg whites to achieve a texture that is both dense and surprisingly light.

Baked to perfection, the cake provides a tender and moist base for the crowning glory: a thick and creamy traditional cream cheese icing. The marriage of the subtly tangy cake and the rich, smooth icing creates a symphony of flavors that dance on the palate. The reddish hue, while characteristic of red velvet cake, is optional, as this variation celebrates the cake's chocolatey essence.

For a more natural approach, the coloring can be omitted entirely, allowing the cake's inherent flavors to shine through. Baking substitutions offer exciting possibilities for those with dietary preferences. Explore different flours and sweeteners to create your own unique variations of this beloved treat.

A well-stocked pantry is key to successful baking. Keeping essentials on hand allows for spontaneity and creativity in the kitchen. Expand your baking horizons by gradually incorporating new items into your repertoire.

This measured approach prevents overwhelm and allows you to discover new flavors and textures at your own pace. Indulge in the simple pleasure of baking, and savor the delightful flavors and textures of these exquisite teacakes. Their balanced sweetness and satisfying texture make them the perfect treat for any occasion.

Enjoy the process of creating these delightful cakes, and share them with friends and family for a truly memorable experience.

Instructions

    1.
    In a large mixing bowl, sift together almond flour, baking powder, salt, cocoa powder, and tapioca flour/starch. In a second bowl, whisk together eggs, erythritol, liquid stevia, vanilla extract, butter extract, almond milk, and melted butter. Whisk the melted butter rapidly into the wet ingredient last to stop the heat from cooking the raw egg. If you wish to dye your cake red, add red food coloring to the wet ingredients until you reach your desired color. Then, pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until your batter comes together.
    2.
    Next, turn on an oven to preheat to 350 degrees and spray a 9-10-inch springform pan with pan spray. In a stand mixer, whip egg whites and cream of tartar together at a high speed until the ingredients come together to form stiff peaks. When the egg whites are whipped, gently fold them into the cake batter. Use a spatula to fold the batter over to avoid deflating all the air bubbles you've just created.
    3.
    Pour the batter immediately into your prepared cake pan and gently spread it into an even layer with a spatula. The batter will not rise very high in the pan, but it will rise more during baking. Bake the cake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Then, reduce the heat to 325 degrees and finish baking for 15 more minutes. To test for doneness, use a toothpick test. Let the cake cool for 5 minutes before releasing it from the springform pan to finish cooling on a baker's cooling rack.
    4.
    While the cake is in the oven, make the cream cheese icing. Blend room temperature cream cheese and cold butter at high speed in your stand mixer with a paddle attachment. Scrape the mixing bowl down with a spatula, and blend Keto icing sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy whipping cream into the icing. Scrape down the bowl and continue whipping multiple times until you have a super-smooth, creamy, white cream cheese icing. Store the finished icing in your refrigerator until it's time to use.
    5.
    Wait for the cake to be fully cooled before you frost it, which can take at least an hour. All you have to do is gently spread the cream cheese icing in a thick layer across the top of the cake, reaching all the edges. Slice the cake into 8 slices and served them chilled. At your discretion, you may include toppings such as a dusting of cocoa powder, fresh strawberries, or fresh-whipped cream.
