How to Make Keto Caramel Mud Cake
- Preheat your oven to 150C/300F. Grease a deep 10in round cake pan and line with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Place the butter, white chocolate, sweetener, and sour cream into a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Heat, stirring occasionally, until the white chocolate has melted and all the ingredients are well combined.
- Remove from the heat and add the vanilla and caramel extracts. Mix well.
- Add the eggs and mix well.
- Sift in the remaining dry ingredients and mix well.
- Pour the cake batter into your prepared pan and smooth out the top.
- Bake for 70-80 minutes, until the cake feels firm to the touch, and an inserted skewer comes out clean.
- Set the cake aside on a rack to cool completely before frosting.
- To make the ganache; add the white chocolate to a heatproof bowl and set aside.
- Place the cream into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer, then pour over the chocolate. Leave to sit for 2 minutes then whisk together, ensuring that all the chocolate is melted.
- Put the ganache into the fridge for 10-20 minutes to firm up slightly.
- Using a serrated knife, trim the top of the cake to make it flat. Place it top side down onto a cake stand or platter.
- Spoon the ganache over the cake, allow it to drizzle down the sides. For the piped effect, whip some of the ganache with a hand mixer for 2-3 minutes until it’s light and fluffy before pipe over the cake.
- Set the cake at room temperature for 15 minutes, for the ganache to set.
- Cut into slices, serve, and enjoy!
