Instructions:

For the Chocolate Cake:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 9-inch round cake pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together coconut flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
3. Add the eggs, almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until smooth and well combined.
4. Gradually add the boiling water to the batter while mixing continuously. The batter will be thin.
5. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cakes comes out clean.
7. Remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the Chocolate Buttercream Frosting:

1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy and smooth.
2. Gradually add the powdered sweetener and cocoa powder to the butter, mixing well after each addition.
3. Add the vanilla extract and 2 tablespoons of heavy cream or almond milk. Beat until the frosting is light and fluffy, adding more cream or milk as needed to reach your desired consistency.
4. Once the cakes are completely cooled, spread a layer of frosting on top of one cake layer. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting.
5. Decorate the cake as desired.
6. Slice and serve the keto chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream frosting
