Chocolate Cake

1-1/4 cups almond flour

1/4 cup coconut flour

1/4 cup Pyure granulated sweetener

1/4 cup lakanto golden sweetener

2 tablespoon baking powder

1/4 cup black cocoa powder (can use regular cocoa powder if you like, the black cocoa gives it more of an "oreo" taste)

2 ounces melted unsweetened chocolate

4 eggs, whisked

Additional 1 cup sugar free ChocZero dark chocolate chips, separated (link & discount code below)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cover the baking dish with parchment paper cut to size, and spray liberally with your cooking spray.

In a stand mixer, combine all of the ingredients for the cream cheese mixture and set aside.

In a large bowl, prepare the chocolate cake. Add the almond and coconut flours, baking powder, sweeteners, and cocoa powder and mix well.

Stream in the melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and sour cream. Mix well. Add in the melted chocolate and eggs. Mix well and set aside.

In a medium bowl, prepare the coconut crust/topping mixture. Add in the coconut, pecans, and sweetener. Mix well. Stream in the melted butter, mix well with a fork.

Scoop out 3/4 of the coconut/pecan mixture and reserve for the topping. Using the rest, layer the mixture in the bottom of the baking dish. Top with half of the chocolate chips.
