Servings 10

Ingredients
  

Cookie Cake (I tripled the below)

  • C coconut oil
  • C monk fruit sweetener (I used Lakanto, but can sub for coconut or regular sugar if you'd rather)
  • 1 organic egg
  • 2 t vanilla extract (I used Neilsen Massey)
  • 1 ¾ C almond flour
  • ½ t baking powder
  • ½ C chocolate chips (I used Lily's for low sugar)

Sweet Potato Frosting (I doubled the below)

  • 1 C white sweet potato cubed
  • ½ C monk fruit sweeter (I used Lakanto, but can sub for coconut or regular sugar if you'd rather)
  • 3 T coconut oil
  • 1 T vanilla almond milk (I used MALK Organics)
  • 1 t vanilla extract (I used Neilsen Massey)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease round baking pan with coconut oil. Once the oven is heated, place cubed sweet potato pieces onto a baking sheet and cook for 25 minutes or until soft. Set aside.
  • Using a mixer, combine monk fruit sweetener and coconut oil until smooth.
  • Add in the vanilla and egg and mix until fully combined.
  • In a separate bowl, combine your dry ingredients (almond flour, salt and baking soda) and mix together with a fork.
  • Add your dry ingredients to your wet and mix until smooth. Once the batter is ready, add in the chocolate chips.
  • Spread out your batter into the pan and use a rubber spatula to make sure it is even and level.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  • While baking, add all frosting ingredients to a high speed blender and blend until smooth.
  • Spoon the frosting into a bowl and place in the freezer for about an hour.
  • Once the cookie cake is finished baking, let cool in the fridge or freezer as well.
  • When everything is cool, frost your cookie cake and top with fresh berries. Can be enjoyed warm or cold!
