Equipment

  • 2 Baking Pans 9.5 x 7
  • 1 Parchment Paper
  • 1 Electric Mixer/Stand Mixer
  • 1 Spatula

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 10 Large Eggs Separated
  • 4 Tsp Vanilla Extract Separated
  • 5-10 Drops Liquid Stevia Optional if not using Sweeteners
  • 3.5 Cups Heavy Whipping Cream Cold

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 Scoops Vanilla Whey Protein Powder Unsweetened is fine
  • 2 Tbsp Swerve Icing Sugar Optional if not using Sweeteners
  • 1/4 Tsp Cream of Tartar
  • 1/4 Tsp Salt
  • 1 Tbsp Tallow, Lard or Butter To grease baking pans

Instructions

CAKES

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Grease 2 Baking Pans with Tallow, Lard or Butter. Cut parchment to line the bottom of the baking pans. Set aside.
  • Whip Egg Whites with Cream of Tartar until VERY VERY stiff peaks. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, beat Yolks at high speed until thicker and lighter in colour. Add in Swerve, Salt and half of Vanilla Extract.
  • Slowly beat Protein Powder into the Yolks. It will thicken up, but continue beating on low for 1 minute or until smooth and gluey.
  • Scoop 2 large dollops of Egg Whites and beat into Yolk mixture, on low, until a smooth, pudding, consistency.
  • Using a spatula, slowly and gently, fold Yolk Mixture (¼ at a time) into Egg Whites until incorporated. Being careful not to disrupt the fluff!
  • Pour complete mixture into greased and lined Baking Pans, ensuring there are no gaps.
  • Bake for 25-35 minutes or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
  • Allow to cool 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack. 

ICING

  • While cakes are cooling; add Whipping Cream, desired amount of Stevia Drops, and the remainder of the Vanilla Extract to a large bowl.
  • Whip on high speed until thick and fluffy. You should be able to tilt the bowl without the Cream moving! Set aside.

ASSEMBLY

  • Spread a thin layer of Whipped Cream on the base of your desired serving dish(es).
  • Top with the first sheet of cooled Cake. Spread an even, generous, layer of Whipped Cream on top.
  • Repeat step #2, evening out the top layer.
  • Cover tightly and refrigerate for at least 6 hours to set up.
  • Slice and serve!
