Chocolate Heaven Cake
a low carb, gluten free and wheat free recipe


This lovely suggestion is from Libby at 'Ditch the Carbs' site.
It can be made as a cake then sliced, served with berries and whipped cream.
Or bake in a square dish then cut into tasting squares and top each piece off with a fresh berry.
This is an easy idea to take as finger food to share with friends.

Ingredients
Serves 15
300g dark 75% chocolate
175g butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
6 eggs
6 tbsp. double (heavy) cream
4 tsp granulated stevia (optional)
