Valentines Day Series: Layer Cake for Two!

Image
  While mine could use some chocolate drip practice, the taste was still on point so I thought I should share the recipe/process here. This one is super simple since it uses a packaged keto cake mix. I clearly used Kawaii Treats & Eats , but you can certainly sub out your favorite brand and start from there. The rest is essentially all assembly. Which, in my opinion, is the best part! One final note before we dive in. As usual - I am not one to plan measurements ahead of time. So you will have more than you need of both the Buttercream and the Ganache. Both can be stored in the fridge and used for other delicious treats down the line though so... is it really a bad thing? INGREDIENTS: 1 Package Keto Cake Mix (plus all additional ingredients listed, you will prepare this as instructed) 40g Sugar Free Chocolate 40g Heavy Whipping Cream Red Food Coloring 1 Batch Swiss Meringue Buttercream   (I left the frosting white for the inside layers, and colored it pink for the o

Keto-Breaded Chicken Patties (Air Fryer Version)

As I mentioned on Instagram - this one is my own twist on the recipe from Nicole over at Oh My Keto . My husband and I are recently obsessed with these. I was able to make 11 patties with just under a pound of chicken breast, and they make the best sandwiches when you pair them with some cheesebuns and a little dill relish. (Well.. and mayo and cheese, but you get it) I will give you the details on how we made ours, but I think you can tweak it even further to really make they something to write home about. Feel free to adjust as needed to suit your taste. I feel like adding some of your favorite Daks could really seal the deal for these. INGREDIENTS Chicken Patties 1lb Chicken Breast 1 Large Egg 1 tsp Garlic Powder 1 tsp Sriracha 1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard ½ tsp Paprika ½ tsp White Pepper Pickle Juice (enough to cover chicken to brine) Breading ¼ cup Nutritional Yeast ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese ¼ cup Pork Rind Crumbs (feel free to grind some actual pork rinds in the food

Valentine's Day Series | Chocolate Dipped Raspberry Macadamia Nut Biscotti

Image
I have done a few biscotti variations since I have been keto, and they have all been tweaked versions of this recipe . If you want to try the original - it is totally worth it. She creates such amazing keto treats and I truly never want to steal credit or steer people away from the ones who put in all ht hard work initially. That being said, I did put my own spin on these so if you are interested in recreating the Raspberry Macadamia Nut version exactly, follow along below! INGREDIENTS: 130g Almond Flour 50g Lupin Flour 2tsp Baking Powder 2 Large Eggs ¼cup Sweet Cream Butter, Melted ¼tsp  Pink Salt 40g Macadamia Nuts 1 tsp Raspberry Emulsion (I use LorAnn Oils. I really do love this brand and all of the baking emulsions) 70g Powdered Erythritol   (I buy granular always, then blend up half the bag to make powdered so I have it readily available for recipes down the line) 3 Drops Stevia Glycerite   (This may seem pricy, but I bought mine over a year ago and I am still o
