My birthday is just a couple of weeks away and I figured I’d change it up a bit this year and go with one of my childhood cake request faves! This cake takes me back to when my Mom would make a 9×13 yellow cake and top it with a can of chocolate frosting. *drool* Nothing complicated, but so tasty! My Husband isn’t a huge fan of chocolate and said this might be his favorite keto dessert. When I asked him to choose which was his favorite between the Berry Lemon Loaf I made over the weekend and this cake, he chose the cake, much to my surprise. It was basically a tie, but who can pass up a slice of nostalgia?

5 eggs
2 cups almond flour
2 tbsp coconut flour
