  • 20 vanilla stevia drops
  • pinch salt
  • pinch cream of tartar optional

  • 1 ounce cream cheese softened (or mascarpone cheese)
  • 2 tablespoons Sukrin Melis or Swerve Confectioners
  • ¼ teaspoon instant espresso powder

  • Whip all frosting ingredients together until fluffy.
  • Frost the top of each cake layer, stacking on top of each other.

Notes

Use a small round molds. For perfectly round cakes, a muffin top pan is the perfect size. Or, you can use four 3-inch cake pans.
Do not over bake. The cakes can become crumbly if cooked too long. So be sure to check while baking and take them out of the oven once then are golden brown.
Fold gently. Care must be taken not to flatten the egg whites when folding in the yolk batter. Otherwise, the cakes will not turn out light and fluffy.
Use eggs and butter at room temperature. The ingredients will mix together more smoothly if everything is at room temperature.
