Here’s the Recipe

Ingredients:

How to Make It!

Step 1: Make Your Crust (and then let completely cool) :

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup – Blanched Almond Flour
  • 1/4 Cup – Chopped Nuts (Pecans and Almonds are lower in carbs)
  • 1/2 Cup – Butter
  • 3 Tbsp of Sweetner (We recommend So Nourished Monk Fruit Erythritol blend)

Prep Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350, set out your cream cheese and let it soften, also set out your butter.

Melt your butter, and then combine the other layer 1 ingredients in a bowl and mix together.  You should get a thick doughy type mixture, this is your crust for the dessert.

Pour the dough into you 9×13 glass dish and begin to cover the bottom of your dish.  Use your fingers or a spachler spread it out, it wont look like it’s enough but it will be just keep working with it until you cover the bottom of your dish.

Bake the crust in the oven for 8- 15 minutes at 350 degrees, take it out and let it cool completely (that’s important)

Step 2:  Make Your Whip Cream Topping: 

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of Heavy Cream
  • Liquid Sweetener (Stevia or Sucralose)

 Prep Instructions:

Whip your heavy cream and mix with your sweetener to taste.  It will look like whip cream when your done.

*We suggest that you make this in advance and let chill while you make the other layers of the cake.

Step 3: Make Your Cheesecake Layer:

Ingredients

  • 8 oz – Cream Cheese (softened)
  • 1 Cup – Powdered Sugar Substitute (We used So Nourished Powdered Erythritol)
  • 1 Cup – Heavy Cream (Whipped)

Prep Instructions:

Combine and mix your ingredients using a blender, until smooth and creamy.  Set aside for later, or chill.

Step 4:  Make Your Chocolate Pudding Layer

Ingredients

  • 2 Boxes of Sugar Free Chocolate Instant Pudding (1.5 oz boxes – the small boxes)
  • 3 Cups – Heavy Cream

 Prep Instructions:

Combine and mix your the heavy cream and instant pudding ingredients using a blender and mix well.

TROUBLESHOOTING TIP:  

Your pudding when blended should be of a creamy consistency that should be easy to spread over your cream cheese layer.  If your pudding layer looks too thick you will need to thin out the mixture and we suggest using half-and half*

How to Assemble Your Ribbon Cake

Step 1:  Gently and evenly spread your Cream Cheese layer over your COOLED crust.

Step 2:  Gently and evenly spread your Pudding Layer over your Cream Cheese layer.

Step 3:  Gently and evenly spread your chilled whipped cream over your pudding layer

Step 4:  Optional Step:  Sprinkle the top of your top layer with a low carb/keto friendly topping of your choice – we used sugar free Lily’s Chocolate chips.  In another video we used topped with crushed Russel Stover Sugar free candies (we’ve stop using these due to the ingredient Maltitol that is used to sweeten  these but that is a personal choice), you could also top with chopped pecans.

ARE YOU INTERESTED IN STARTING THE KETO DIET, AND FIND YOURSELF CONFUSED BY ALL OF THE INFORMATION OUT THERE!?

Some of the best information on starting the Keto Diet can be found at a site called Ruled.me. This site has lots of free information, but if you want a step by step plan I would suggest the Keto Academy Package. This is what I purchased and I still reference the material 18 months later.
