Keto Pumpkin Cake










  Nothing says Fall like a few bites of Pumpkin with Cream Cheese and Nuts.  Throw in the fact that this is a quick microwave dish, yet moist, tender and filled with flavor.  Each of the two servings are only 312 calories, 23.5g carbs, 2.4g carbs, 18g sugar alcohol, 3.1g net carbs, 8.4g protein and 30g fat...and worth every bite!  Don't you just love being in the kitchen when the leaves are starting to change color, I sure do!  Especially when happy surprises show up on my porch, thanks to Nielsen-Massey for letting me try out their fab Vanilla, the perfect Holiday addition!  #NielsenMasseyInspires
