I have added a “Twist” to our Keto Chocolate Fudge Cake! Therefore, since I am from the great State of Oklahoma I added Okie Twister to the name of this cake. As if my Keto Chocolate Fudge cake couldn’t be any better, I have added, pecans and toasted unsweetened coconut!!! Get creative, add different nuts, add sugar free white or chocolate chips or add a whipped topping!!!
The cake recipe for this Keto Okie Twister Cake is my Keto Chocolate Fudge Cake which is keto, low carb, sugar free and gluten free. For instance, this cake has both almond flour and coconut flour, but without a coconut taste to add moisture. I believe for a keto cake it is actually moist and not too dry. Sometimes, with almond flour a cake or biscuit can be gritty like a cornbread texture, but this mixture of almond flour and coconut flour is just perfect.
The sweetener in this Keto Okie Twister Chocolate Cake is Pyure. Pyure is a stevia blend and I actually believe that it tastes like sugar. I purchase my Pyure at Wal-mart. However, Pyure comes in 2 forms, granular and confectioners. For this recipe, the granular is what I have chosen.

- coconut flour
- cocoa
- Pyure sweetener or sweetener of your choice
- baking soda
- baking powder
- salt
- coconut oil
- vanilla
- eggs
- water
Frosting Ingredients
- sugar free chocolate chips of your choice

The frosting on this cake is quick and easy. The recipe calls for sugar free chocolate chips. However, I have found a couple different brands of sugar free chocolate chips. Some have aspartame and one is made with stevia.
To make the frosting you will melt the chocolate chips and butter in a glass bowl. After the chocolate chips and butter are melted then add the vanilla and Pyure. Then, place the bowl into the refrigerator and the mixture will firm up. This usually takes 20 to 30 minutes. But, once the mixture is firm, take a hand mixer and beat until fluffy. The frosting is then ready to spread on top of a cooled cake. (scroll down for printable recipe)
