Print Recipe

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients:

  • ⅓ cup – coconut oil melted
  • ⅔ cup – Granular Sugar Replacement Lakanto
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp – pure vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup – cooled brewed coffee or water or milk of your choice

Dry Ingredients:

  • ¾ cup – Almond Flour
  • ⅓ cup – unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 Tbsp or one packet – unflavoured gelatin powder
  • ½ tsp – baking powder
  • ¼ tsp – sea salt
  • ½ cup – Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips Lilly’s

Frosting:

  • ½ cup – softened unsalted butter
  • ½ cup – softened cream cheese
  • ¼ cup – unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup – Powdered Sugar Replacement Swerve
  • 1-2 Tbsp – of room temperature milk or plant milk of your choice or room temp coffee
  • ½ tsp – pure vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and prepare an 8×8 brownie pan with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, stir together the melted and cooled coconut oil, sweetener, eggs, vanilla extract, and cooled brewed coffee until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, sea salt, and gelatin powder until there are no lumps left.
  • Combine the wet and dry ingredients and mix until the batter is smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30 minutes, until the brownies are set in the middle. Be sure not to over-bake the brownies, as they will continue to set as they cool.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely.
  • Then chill in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes. (optional but I prefer the brownies chilled)
  • While the brownies are chilling, prepare the frosting. In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened unsalted butter and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the cocoa powder, powdered sugar-style sweetener, room temperature milk, and vanilla extract to the bowl and beat again until the frosting is light and fluffy.
  • Spread the frosting over the cooled brownies using a spatula or knife.
  • Cut into squares and enjoy!
