I admit right away, I'm not a fan of carrot cakes. I'm an incorrigible chocolatier! But this is my husband's favorite cake, so I decided to make it, and I did not regret it. Since I currently adhere to a low-carb diet, and sometimes I still want sweet things, recipes like this wonderful carrot cake, or cake - as you like (in English, cake - cake) come to the rescue. One slice contains only 5 grams of carbohydrates, and not a gram of wheat flour or sugar. Try it, it's delicious!

Instructions
- Glaze: in a small bowl, whisk the cream cheese and butter until they turn into a smooth mass. Gradually add the sweetener, and continue to whisk. Add vanilla and, if necessary, heavy whipped cream. Do not overdo it with cream, they need just a little bit. I didn't need them at all this time. Cream cheese and butter did a great job.
- Before applying the "glaze", you need to make sure that the cupcake is completely cold. I take the word "glaze" in quotation marks, because this keto version of the glaze can only be called conditionally - it does not harden to the end, and does not turn into a crust, as on Easter cakes.Spread it evenly over the entire surface of the cake. Sprinkle the ground pecans on top.
