Ingredients
Melted Butter
8 tbsp
The Ultimate Icing Sugar Replacement by Swerve
1 cup
100% Cocoa Special Dark by Hershey's
1 cup
Raw Egg
4 large
Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon
Almond Flour
¾ cup
Cream Cheese

The Ultimate Icing Sugar Replacement by Swerve
1 cup
Raw Egg
4 large
Recipe Steps
steps 6
45 min
Step 1
Preheat an oven to 350 F. In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter, 1 cup of Swerve, cocoa powder, salt, eggs, and vanilla extract until incorporated. Add the almond flour and mix it in.Step 2
In a separate mixing bowl, heat the cream cheese for 30 seconds until softened. Add 1 egg, ½ cup of Swerve, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until combined.Step 3
Line an 8” x 8” baking dish with parchment paper that hangs over the sides some. Spray the parchment with cooking spray. Pour the brownie batter into the baking dish.Step 4
Spoon the cream cheese mixture all over the top of the brownie batter, then using a butter knife swirl the cream cheese into the brownie batter well.Step 5
You should have two distinct layers, which is a brownie layer and a cream cheese layer with some brownie swirls.Step 6
Bake for 30-35 minutes until the center is cooked through and the edges are lightly browned. Cool at room temperature until cool to the touch. Then refrigerate the brownies until chilled before cutting. To make cutting easier, run a knife under hot water before making each cut. This keeps the knife clean and warm, which helps cut through the brownies. Keep stored in the fridge until ready to eat!

Horrible...

Who the hell put this recipe up here, didn't put a count on the eggs on step 1, no measurement for salt and doubled the swerve in the ingredients list while calling out only 1 1/2 in the directions. Why are there so many recipes like this? I paid for premium half-assed recipes apparently

I fully agree. I made these, and they are horrible

Recipe needs to be corrected as there are not 4 eggs in the cream cheese mixture. This will also affect macros so it's better to redo this as a custom recipe. I imagine that's why some people's stuff didn't turn out.

It only says 1 egg ?
UnbelievableCauliflower677128 a year ago
Also. It doesn't say how much salt.

Absolutely delicious! I only used 2/3 cup cocoa powder, added chopped walnuts to the brownie batter and added sugar free eggnog flavoured syrup to the cheesecake mixture. Now I can eat a decadent dessert during the holidays while still following Keto!

How many eggs did you use in the first step>

Tastes very good. I stepped away from oven for a couple of minutes and kinda burned the top....good idea to watch over after 20 mins!

These turned out delicious! I did use 1/2 C cocoa as one review suggested and they were great! I had no problem cutting them while they were still warm and the cream cheese topping was plenty. I wish I could share a picture of how well they look. I will definitely be using this recipe again!

Great recipe if you make some adjustments, like cut the cocoa by half and double the cheese mixture and it is an amazing dessert, absolutsly decadent!

Making it, I thought this would be good, but unfortunately I was wrong. Not good at all.

Bitter aftertaste

These are fantastic! Recipe is too big for me though so I hope they freeze well.

Absolutely delicious. I am a brownie lover, but add cream cheese and 🤯! These had an excellent texture, moist, but not oily like many keto brownies I have tried. This is definitely a keeper for me.

Delicious. Came out perfect, swirls and all ♥️

Overall decent taste with good texture. There is too much cocoa powder making the brownie a little bitter. Also, the ratio of cheese mixture to brownie is about half of what pic shows. I will make this again, and next time use only 2/3 cup cocoa and double the cream cheese mixture.

Terrible aftertaste. So disappointed in the result. I possibly overcooked this (cooked 35 min), the top was golden which made the cheesecake not as great as I could have been. The brownie level was not good at all. I could taste the swerve and it was not enjoyable. I will not make this again.

I don’t know what I did wrong, however, the bottom layer was so solid. I could not even mix the two layers. Waiting ‘till it baked 🙏🏽

The batter tastes great!! Have had to add 20 extra minutes on the cooking time thus far.... they look good, and the batter tasted great! Guess we will see how they taste cooked.

Cooked for an hour. Didn’t swirl much because the brownie part is pretty thick batter but the taste is so good. Ran out of swerve confectioners and used granular instead, perhaps why batter was thicker but everything was moist and super yum.

I'm using all confectioners and my batter is still thick. It's in the oven now so we'll see

These little suckers are great!!!! We extended the baking time to 50 minutes total.
