Chocolate and Almond Cake - sugar free

by Diana 

As a therapist working in mental health, one of the things I always recommend - and i have tried myself at those struggling phases we all go through from time to time- its a lifestyle modification plan, targeting diet amongst all things. Expectedly, this comes with certain limitations rather than indulgences which is counterproductive when I also encourage self-reward and the occasional praising treat. Not surprisingly most people, myself included, would  have a preference for sugary self-affection as we get the false impression that this will impact our mood positively when, as we all know by now, a sugar excess could have quite the opposite effect. Some will argue that we can’t have all we ask for in life, but the recipe below, replacing sugar for stevia actually works so you can actually have your -tasty- cake and it it! I hope you like it too.
