Ingredients
Cake Layers
- 9 eggs
- 9 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 9 tablespoon sweetener (monk-fruit or erythritol-based; can be replaced with sugar)
- 2-3 drops vanilla extract
- ⅓ teaspoon salt
Cream
- 2 ½ cups (500 g) cream cheese (Philadelphia or similar)
- 1 ½ cups (350 g) heavy cream
- 3.5 oz (100 g) sweetener
Decoration
- 1 cup fresh and/or dried fruits and berries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 365°F (185°C). Meanwhile, separate egg whites from yolks and place them into medium-sized bowls.
- Add 7 tablespoon of the sweetener to the yolks, adding the remaining 2 tablespoon and a pinch of salt to the egg whites.
- Whisk the yolks until the mixture increases in volume by approx. ⅓ and becomes significantly lighter, then add flour and mix with a spoon or a mixer to combine.
- Whip the egg whites until stiff foam. Slowly fold into the egg yolk and flour mixture.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, pour the batter into the baking sheet, and level with a spoon or spatula.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until the batter rises and becomes light golden brown.
- Remove from the oven, set aside to cool completely, then cut into 3 equal pieces.
- Meanwhile, prepare the filling cream: add sweetener and cream cheese to a mixing bowl and mix until uniform. Add cold heavy cream and whisk until stiff.
- Assemble the cake: Take the first cake layer and cover it with a generous amount of the filling cream, add the second cake layer on top and cover it with the cream. Finally, place the last cake layer on top, followed by a finishing layer of cream. Decorate with your favorite berries, fruits, or other toppings.
Notes
- It's important to use cold cream cheese and heavy cream so the cream doesn't become grainy.
- If you're OK with using sugar, feel free to replace the sugar-free sweetener with regular table sugar.
