DIRECTIONS

Use the Atkins recipe to make Atkins Soy-Free Flour Mix, you will need 1/4 cup.

Heat oven to 350°F. Mist an 8-inch round cake pan with cooking spray; set aside.
Chop pecans then combine with the whole-wheat flour, flour mix, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
Cream 6 tablespoons butter, sugar substitute, and 1 teaspoon vanilla (reserve remaining teaspoon for the frosting) in another medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Add egg and egg yolk; beat until incorporated, scraping down sides of bowl if necessary. Add sour cream; beat until incorporated. Add flour mixture; mix on low speed until just combined.
Spread batter into pan; bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Invert cake onto a wire rack to cool. Wrap cake in plastic wrap until ready to serve; transfer to a plate and frost if desired before cutting into wedges.
For Frosting: Cream 1 1/2 cups butter with 1/4 cup sugar free pancake syrup, a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Spread frosting on the top and sides of the cooled cake. Add a pecan to each slice if desired as decoration.
