FAQs:

What happens if we add eggs and egg yolk directly to the hot cream and milk mixture?

If you add eggs directly to the hot mixture, they will scramble immediately into tight clumps. So it is better to raise the temperature of eggs by adding a little hot mixture and then adding them to the whole hot cream and milk mixture. This would prevent the clumping of eggs and get them mixed in the entire mixture.

How many carbohydrates does this Keto Peanut Butter Dirt cake contain?

This cake has 4.7 grams of net carbs per serving. Although this recipe gives us 16 slices we can decrease the size of slices by increasing their number because they are very rich and creamy.

Is it important to use Glucomannan in the pudding?

Yes, Glucomannan or Xanthum gum thickens the pudding layer, so it is important to add it to provide the desired thickness.
