Does anyone remember the old Southern Living magazines? My mom was a Southern Living aficionado but then again, wasn’t every Southern woman in the 90s?
Anyway, she used to make this chocolate cake that chocolate dreams were made of.
We’re talking two layers of chocolate cake, cool whip, and about a dozen Hershey bars.
Sin-sationally delicious. In fact, her friends would request she make it at almost every party. And she hosted parties often.
I bet you can’t guess where did she got the reciepe? Souther Living, duh!
So, why am I telling you this? It’s relevant, I promise.
I have daydreamed about that cake for YEARS.
Maybe it’s nostalgia, maybe it’s because I love chocolate, maybe it reminds me of my mom. I don’t know.
What I do know is that cake was damn good.
So, what does a food blogger do when she wants to taste a memory?
She recreates the damn thing!
And THAT, my friends, is what this keto chocolate cake is.
Two layers of low carb chocolate cake, keto cool whip, and ChocZero milk chocolate squares.
Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, oh my!
is this really low carb?
I’m sure that by now you’re thinking “how can this be low carb”.
I know, I have to pinch myself too.
This really is real keto life!
This keto chocolate cake is a great basic gluten free cake recipe!
I actually used my favorite keto yellow cake recipe as the base for this recipe but added cocoa powder to make it chocolate!
And for the frosting, we use my crazy simple keto cool whip!

Thanks to companies like ChocZero, we ketoers can enjoy delicious chocolate guilt free!
I’ve used their products in several other recipes (like this one and this one).
They are my favorite keto friendly chocolate company because they sweeten with monkfruit (zero sugar alcohols), use zero fillers, zero corn products, and are even vegan and vegetarian friendly!
Best of all, all of their products are less than 3 net carbs per serving!
(P.S., while I am an ambassador/influencer for ChocZero recipe is not sponsored. I just really love them!)
Their dark chocolate squares were the perfect replacement for Hershey bars in this recipe!
(I actually prefer this over Hershey’s now!)
Each square is only 1 net carb!
So, even though this sugar free chocolate cake is decadent and indulgent, it’s still crazy low in carbs!
You can pick your jaw up off the floor now!
