MOCHA CREAM FROSTING LOW CARB

[barbogold]

MOCHA CREAM FROSTING
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon instant coffee powder, crushed
1/3 cup granular Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda
1/4 cup cocoa, sifted

Pour the cream into a medium, deep mixing bowl. Add the instant coffee powder and stir until dissolved; add Splenda. With a wire whisk, whip the cream until it just starts to thicken. Slowly blend in the cocoa and whisk just a few seconds until thick. It will thicken very quickly so don't over beat. Use to frost cake or serve as a whipped topping over cake. Store frosting and frosted cake in refrigerator.

Makes enough to frost and fill an 8-inch round layer cake or 8-10 servings
