Table of Contents

Ingredients

For the Carnivore Cake:

  • 1 cup ground pork rinds (as flour substitute)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter or tallow
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream (optional, if tolerated)
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract (optional, if tolerated)
  • 1/4 cup grated aged cheese (such as parmesan or cheddar) – optional for extra flavor
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • Pinch of salt

For the Carnivore Cheesecake Mousse:

  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream (optional, if tolerated)
  • 1 tbsp beef gelatin (optional, for thicker mousse)
  • Sweetener of choice (if desired, such as stevia or monk fruit, though most carnivores avoid sweeteners)
  • A pinch of salt

For the Carnivore Honey Drizzle:

  • 2 tbsp raw honey (this is technically not strictly carnivore, but it’s often included in more relaxed carnivore approaches; you can omit or use a honey substitute if stricter)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Carnivore Cake:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan with butter or tallow.
  • In a large bowl, combine the ground pork rinds, baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter or tallow, and heavy cream (if using).
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and stir until well combined. If using grated cheese, fold it into the batter.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before assembling the dessert.

2. Prepare the Carnivore Cheesecake Mousse:

  • In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
  • If using gelatin, dissolve it in a small amount of warm water according to the package instructions and mix it into the cream cheese.
  • Add heavy whipping cream (if tolerated) and continue to whip until light and fluffy.
  • If using a sweetener, add it to taste. Be mindful of the carnivore principles when sweetening.

3. Assemble the Cake:

  • Once the cake has cooled, slice it into layers if desired, or leave it as a single layer.
  • Spread the carnivore cheesecake mousse generously on top of the cake.
  • Drizzle with raw honey (optional, or use a carnivore-friendly drizzle like rendered tallow or more cream if preferred).

Final Notes:

This updated recipe ensures you’re sticking to a carnivore diet, with animal-based ingredients and minimal plant-derived products. If you’re strict on the carnivore diet, you can skip the honey or use a very small amount if it’s part of your personal approach.
