Hi Chick,

Stuck in the office - oh! the joys of self employment! At least the weather has cooled down a bit, what a relief!

Hope everyone is having a good Sunday.

OK...I blew it big time yesterday. I had a piece of cake ! I hope I can redeem myself by doing the induction for another 2 weeks. I guess it's like starting over again.

I had a big argument with my husband and later that night I felt compelled to eat the cake. Oh well, today is another day and my husband and son are going camping with the scouts for a week so I get the house to myself...YEAH, it's just me and the dog!

Hello Everyone,
The piece of cake thing is going to get me on Tues. It is a party for two of my Grandsons Birthdays. I am thining if I only eat a piece about 1" by 1" and no other carbs for the day maybe I will be ok, but I don't know. I am trying to find a low carb cake and make splenda frosting for the adults that are doing this plan, but so far no luck on the cake part the frosting is just splenda and a little cream and butter. I have some carb quick if anyone has any ideas on the cake part?

There's a beautiful looking almond cake as well as others on lindas website Linda's Low Carb Menus & Recipes - Dessert Recipes (make two layers of the Pound cake and frost in the middle and top)

Hello Chick, Keetji, Suzzette, Sue and all those that check in.
I didn't get the laundry done yesterday so today is the day.
Here's a 3 minute chocolate cake recipe. Serving for 2
3 Minute Chocolate cake
1/4 cup almond flour
1 Tbls. cocoa
1/4 tsp. baking powder
3 Tbls. + 1 tsp. granulated splenda or sweetner of choice.
2 Tbls. butter
1 Tbls. water
1 egg
Mix almond flour, cocoa, baking powder, splenda in 2 cup glass measuring cup.
Stir in butter, water, and egg- mix well- scrape batter down on sides with spatula- cover with plastic wrap. Vent by cutting slits in plastice wrap in center.
Microwave on high for 1 minute 20 seconds. 2 servings, 4 net carbs.
I like to cut this in half and make a double layer cake and then frost it. I decorate it by making a flower on top with sliced almonds.
Low Carb Chocolate Frosting
3 Tbls. of butter, softened not melted
5 Tbls. cocoa powder
1 cup splenda

Wishing everyone a great Low Carb Sunday!
