Definitely, it's important to control your portions but with nutritious keto desserts everything is easier. For me it's much harder to follow keto without keto desserts because when you crave sweets and you struggle with yourself hard, you are in danger to eat sugary sweets and anything what comes to your way.
When you plan your keto meals in advance and prepare keto dessert for your busy week you have much bigger chance to achieve your goals on much easier way.
I strongly believe that we have to enjoy during every process in our life. Even if you want to lose weight with keto diet, it doesn't have to be suffering.

TIPS FOR FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE KETO RECIPE WITH STRAWBERRIES
Chocolate cake - this flourless chocolate cake is really easy to make. You will need to separate egg whites from egg yolks and beat or mix egg whites with low carb sweetener and baking powder until firm peaks are formed. To make it more firm I add a pinch of salt to this mixture.
Separately whisk egg yolks with melted dark chocolate. I use sugar free dark chocolate to reduce the number of carbs. You may choose dark chocolate available to you, just check the NET Carbs and what is the sweetener inside. I recommend you chocolates sweetened with stevia and erythritol or xylitol, like this dark chocolate.
After preparing two separate mixtures you need to fold them together, very gently. It has to stay fluffy but combined. If you do it to energetically it might turn to liquid and you want to avoid it to be completely liquid. After combining you just bake it for 20 to 30 minutes or until it's baked. When cake is baked it's the best to poke it with a straw like in a photo bellow so that your jam could enter to these little holes.
Sugar free strawberry jam - for this keto cake, I use my recipe for keto strawberry jam. This strawberry jam is easy to prepare and you can make it until cake is baked in the oven. Of course, you can use some store bought sugar free strawberry jam if you have access to those products.
Heavy whipping cream - for the topping I just use heavy whipping cream mixed with low carb sweetener and vanilla. So easy and delicious!
