Keto Mocha Coffee Cake
I made the Best Keto Mocha Coffee Cake Recipe the other day. It was so great to go with morning coffee or an afternoon snack. It has the inviting flavors of mocha and chocolate combined with a nutty texture that is sure to please your gang.
Vital proteins makes an awesome dairy free option for putting in your morning coffee, or even making new recipes like this Keto mocha coffee cake!
Mocha is traditionally a coffee drink that combines the rich taste of chocolate with the flavor of coffee. What is cool is that the folks over at Vital Proteins captured the pure taste of mocha in this awesome go anywhere package! This mocha coffee creamer is awesome because it is shelf stable and can be mixed into any liquid.
Taking my own creamer to coffee shops is a drag. I am sensitive to milk so I like to have an alternative. Often almond milk has a bunch of fillers and sugar which is no bueno. You can even put the creamer powder in little baggies and take it with you on the plane or in the car. It dissolves into the coffee seamlessly. You will love it when mixed with this awesome healthy Keto Mocha Coffee cake recipe!
It even has the goodness of collagen that supports healthy hair and nails while bolstering supple skin!
