  • 3 1/2 cups sugar-free white chocolate chips (melted)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch pan with parchment paper.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend until fluffy.
  3. Step 3: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the almond milk, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
  4. Step 4: Add the almond flour, Dutch processed cocoa powder, baking powder, and sea salt. Beat until the batter is smooth.
  5. Step 5: Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the top springs back and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool completely in the pan.
  6. Step 6: For the frosting, beat the softened butter in a bowl with a hand mixer until fluffy, about 1 minute.
  7. Step 7: Gradually beat in the cocoa powder, powdered sweetener, and vanilla extract, starting on low speed and increasing to high. Beat for 30 seconds on high.
  8. Step 8: Add the heavy cream, starting on low speed. Beat on high for another 30 seconds until smooth and fluffy. Add more cream if needed to thin.
  9. Step 9: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  10. Step 10: Once the cake has cooled, crumble it into a large bowl. Add the frosting and stir until well combined.
  11. Step 11: Form the mixture into 1 1/2 inch balls and place them aside.
  12. Step 12: Insert a cake pop stick into each ball. (Optional: Dip the stick tip in melted chocolate before inserting for extra hold.)
  13. Step 13: Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl using 20-second intervals, stirring in between until fully melted.
  14. Step 14: Dip each cake pop into the melted chocolate, then immediately into the sugar-free sprinkles. Place the pops on the prepared baking sheet to set.

Tips & Variations

  • If you prefer, substitute almond milk with coconut milk for a richer flavor.
  • Adding a pinch of cinnamon to the batter can enhance the chocolate notes.
  • For a festive twist, use colored sugar-free sprinkles according to the occasion.

Storage

Store the cake pops in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Let them come to room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving for the best texture. For longer storage, freeze the cake pops in a single layer and thaw in the refrigerator before serving.

FAQs

Can I use a different sweetener?

  • 6 large Eggs
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened almond milk

  • 5 tbsp Dutch processed cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup Besti Powdered Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tbsp Heavy cream

Coating

  • 3 1/2 cups Sugar-free white chocolate chips (melted)
  • 1 cup Sugar-free sprinkles (*)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cake batter. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a 9 x 13 inch pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and Besti Monk Fruit Allulose Blend until fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Next, mix in the almond milk, sour cream, and vanilla extract.
  2. Add dry ingredients. Gradually incorporate the almond flour, Dutch processed cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of sea salt into the wet mixture. Stir until the batter becomes smooth and uniform.
  3. Bake the cake. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for 25-35 minutes until the cake springs back when pressed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan.
  4. Make the frosting. Using a hand mixer, beat the softened butter for about 1 minute until fluffy. Gradually add the cocoa powder, powdered sweetener, and vanilla extract, starting on low speed and increasing to high for about 30 seconds. Beat in the heavy cream, adjusting quantity if needed to achieve a smooth and fluffy consistency.
  5. Prepare cake pops mixture. Once the cake is completely cooled, crumble it into a large bowl. Mix in the frosting until well combined, creating a dough-like consistency suitable for shaping into balls.
  6. Form cake pops. Shape the mixture into approximately 1 1/2 inch (3.8 cm) balls. Insert a cake pop stick into each ball. For better adherence, optionally dip the tip of the stick into melted chocolate before inserting.
  7. Melt coating chocolate. Place sugar-free white chocolate chips in a large bowl and melt in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  8. Dip and decorate. Dip each cake ball into the melted chocolate, then immediately coat with sugar-free sprinkles. Place the finished cake pops on a parchment-lined baking sheet until the coating sets.

Notes

  • To secure the cake pop sticks better, dip their ends in melted chocolate before inserting into the cake balls.
  • Adjust the heavy cream in the frosting to achieve the desired consistency for easy mixing and spreading.
  • Ensure the cake is thoroughly cooled before crumbling to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Sugar-free sprinkles can be substituted with any low-carb or keto-friendly decoration if desired.
  • Store cake pops in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
