Hey Elaine -- I've made a flourless chocolate cake, and you can find the recipe on my blog. Its EASY to make, and delish. There is a recipe for icing there too. Its near the end of my blog at http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-NbDgUzQhfrJTXdmg.DfXS.Tx?l=6&u=7&mx=7&lmt=5

I used Splenda to sweeten it and made it with almond meal.

For a Ganache glaze:

2 1/2 cups heavy cream
20 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened), finely chopped in a food processor

Make ganache while cake bakes:

Bring cream to a simmer in a 3- to 4-quart saucepan and remove from heat.

Whisk in chocolate until smooth. Transfer ganache to a bowl and chill, covered, stirring occasionally, until thickened but spreadable, about 4 hours. (If ganache becomes too thick, let stand at room temperature until slightly softened.)

If you find the Ganache not sweet enough, you can stir in some Splenda to sweeten to your taste.

Pour on top of the cooled cake.

I prefer a cream cheese based icing instead, as it has way less sugar and fat that the Ganache Glaze.

I found another website that has great low carb recipes. I made "Almost Ice Cream " for my Easter Dessert. It ws great and only had 2 carbs for 1/2 cup. The site is called Diabetes Connect and they have a whole section with lots of great recipes.
