KETO TIRAMISU FOR TWO

This recipe for keto tiramisu allows you to make a homemade, delicious dessert for two. Perfect for date night and easy enough to make any time with simple ingredients and a taste sensation every time

Rather than make a massive cake for this recipe I make a sponge mug cake!

So simple and takes minutes to prepare.

• 1/3 cup almond flour
• 1 1/2 tbsp Nothing Naughty Sweetener or sweetener of choice
• 1 1/2 tsp coconut flour
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• pinch of salt
• 2 tbsp melted butter
• 1 egg
• 1/4 tsp vanilla essence 

Make the Mug Sponge Cake: 

• Put all of the dry ingredients for the sponge cake in a microwave safe mug and mix with a fork.
• Add the melted butter, egg, and vanilla and use the fork to combine. Smooth the top and microwave for 1 minute 25 seconds, or until the cake is set and center is no longer jiggly.
• Carefully remove the mug from the microwave, then run a knife around the edge and flip the cake over onto a cutting board. Cube the cake into 1-inch pieces and divide it into 4 equal portions.

• 1/3 cup mascarpone
• 2 tbsp Nothing Naughty sweetener or sweetener of choice 
• 1 tbsp cream
• 1/4 tsp Vanilla essence 

Make the mascarpone filling: Whisk together all of the filling ingredients in a bowl until smooth and set aside.

Make The Coffee Soak 

• 1/4 cup strong brewed coffee
• 1 tbsp brandy or rum (optional)

Assemble the Parfaits: 

Have on hand two glasses or jars. In each glass, take one portion of the cake and quickly soak each piece in the coffee mixture and then layer in one of the glasses. Then, layer about 2 tbsp of the mascarpone filling on top of the soaked sponge cake. Sift ½ tsp of cocoa powder on top of the filling. Repeat once more to create a second layer of the soaked sponge cake, filling, and cocoa powder.
