What size pan is the Low Carb Chocolate Bake baked in?
Hi Pamela,
The pan used in our test kitchen was an 8″ round pan.
Very surprised with the sweeteners recommended in these recipes. Agave is worse than sugar. Spends is all chemicals. Plant based sugar subs should be promoted.
Hi Judy,
Agave is not mentioned as a sweetener for this recipe. We would not recommend any sweetener that has more than 1 or 2 grams of carbs per serving. As this is a low-carb/keto recipe, a low to no-carb sweetener is the only recommendation. The sweetener one should use is one that you are comfortable with and enjoy the flavor of. Stevia, Erythritol, and Monk fruit are three popular and healthy alternatives to the ones you mention.
I had trouble getting the cream cheese to mix in. Any suggestions?
Would this work with the stevia type powders instead of splenda?
I do not know I don’t care for stevia.
I believe whichever sweetener you use that replaces sugar in the same amount (cup-for-cup), should work just fine. 🙂
Can’t wait to try this . looks yummy
It is a great fix. Enjoy
