Supplies

  • 1 cup cooked and pureed sweet potato (no skins)6 large eggs
  • 1 cup organic 100% pure maple syrup (I use this brand)
  • 1 cup of melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract 
  • 1 cup cocoa powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons of pure monk fruit sweetener
  • 1/4 cup of coconut flour
  • 2 tablespoons of psyllium husk powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup butter, softened (for frosting)
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (for frosting)
  • 3 tbsp milk of choice (for frosting)
  • 1/2 cup of honey (add more if you'd like, depending on your sweet tooth - for frosting)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans (I prefer these cake pans).
  • n a large bowl or stand mixer with a whip attachment, mix together the wet ingredients.
  • Stir in the dry ingredients until smooth.
  • Use a spatula to scrape the sides and bottom to make sure everything is combined.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared pans and gently tap the pans on the counter to spread the batter evenly.
  • Bake for 20-23 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick comes out clean. The cake will resemble a sponge-like texture when you touch it.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting.
  • In a small bowl or stand mixer, mix all the frosting ingredients with a whisk (or whip attachment) until smooth and fluffy.
  • Add a little extra milk if needed to reach your desired consistency.Once the cake is cool, generously frost the layers.
  • Place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours - overnight to get the fudge consistency. Slice and serve!

Notes

This cake tastes better AFTER it's been refrigerated so you can bake it the day before a big event and serve it the next day.
