Number of Servings: 12

Ingredients

    1/2 cup almond flour
    1/2 tsp baking powder
    3 eggs
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    8 tbsp butter, softened
    4 oz softened cream cheese
    1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder or cacao powder
    2 oz chocolate chips; I use Lilly’s Dark Chocolate Chips
    3/4 cup granulated sugar replacement (I used half erythritol, half stevia, for a total of 150 grams)
    Optional:
    30 chocolate chips; I use Lilly’s Dark Chocolate Chips

Tips

Feel free to add in some nuts or keto-friendly caramel for variety!


Directions

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Melt the butter in the microwave then pour over the chocolate chips – stir until all is melted together. Cream together the butter/ chocolate mixture, cream cheese, and sugar with either a hand or stand mixer. Add eggs in one at a time, waiting until the eggs are fully incorporated into the mixture before adding more. Add the vanilla extract.

Slowly add the dry ingredients (baking powder, almond flour & cocoa) until fully incorporated. If adding the chips, stir them in here using a spoon or rubber spatula.

Coat your baking pan (I used a 7x11 pan, but an 8×8 pan or 9×9 also works) with a coconut oil spray for clean removal of brownies. Pour in your mixture! Bake for about 45 minutes (give the toothpick text at around 30-35 minutes to make sure you don't overbake).

Remove from oven and let cool for about 20 minutes. The longer they cool, the more they firm up to hold together better.
