Description

A decadent, single-serving red velvet cake with a rich cream frosting, ready in minutes and perfectly optimized for a low-carb lifestyle.


Ingredients

Scale

Red Velvet Cake Batter

Light Cream Topping

  • 1 tbsp butter (very soft)
  • 2 tbsp powdered monk fruit/allulose sweetener
  • 2 teaspoons heavy cream
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. In a small mixing bowl, combine all Red Velvet Cake Batter ingredients. Whisk vigorously for 30-45 seconds until smooth. If the batter seems overly thick (like paste), add 1 to 2 additional teaspoons of coconut milk.
  2. Generously grease a 7- to 10-ounce microwave-safe mug or ramekin. Pour the batter into the prepared mug.
  3. Microwave on high for 75 seconds. Check the center with a toothpick. It is done when the toothpick comes out with moist crumbs, but not wet batter. If still wet, microwave in 15-second intervals.
  4. Carefully remove the mug (it will be hot!) and let the cake rest for 1-2 minutes to cool slightly and finish cooking.
  5. While the cake rests, prepare the Light Cream Topping. In a separate small bowl, beat the softened butter, powdered sweetener, heavy cream, and vanilla extract with a fork until smooth.
  6. Spread the topping over the warm mug cake and enjoy immediately.
