Lindsey sent this recipe to me and it is fantastic. The sweetness is from dates. It has no flour. Coconut oil , instead of butter, cuts the cholesterol. It does have eggs. Give it a try. I frosted with a bit of no-sugar added peanut butter. LOLI know the sugar from fruit will elevate blood sugar, but my doctor said not to worry about fruit during the 3 months leading up to my most recent A1C. I ate fruit and snacks sweetened with fruit here and there, and my A1C still went down. I was grateful not to have to eliminate fruit.
