My 12 year old daughter wants to bake me a birthday cake for the weekend. She wants me to give her a recipe of a cake I will actually have a slice of... Any ideas?

This is good - the version with just almond flour (ground almonds are just fine and cheaper). Use a sweetener instead of sugar - Xylitol is easy to find in supermarkets (but toxic to pets), or you can order erythritol from Amazon:

The cake @Goonergal linked to is amazing, I use xylitol the same amount as sugar. It's very popular with all my family.

Here’s a good recipe for low carb carrot cake if you like it!

She could make a low carb brownie cake! Loads of recipes online and they taste pretty much the same as a normal brownie! (Quite easy to follow the recipe as well). x
