Ingredients

  • 4 oz. Cream Cheese softened
  • 4 tbsp. Butter softened
  • 3/4 cup Low Carb Granulated Sweetener I like Lakanto
  • 4 tbsp. Cocoa Powder Use a high quality one
  • 1 tsp. Espresso Powder
  • 2 tbsp Irish Whiskey
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups Almond Flour
  • 1 tsp. Xanthan Gum
  • 1 tsp. Baking Powder
  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 1/4 cup Powdered Low Carb Sweetener
  • 1 tsp. Espresso Powder
  • 1 tbsp. Irish Whiskey

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease a 9X9" pan and place a piece of parchment in the pan if desired.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, butter, low carb sweetener, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and whiskey together until smooth.
  • Next, mix in the eggs one at a time. Then mix in the remaining dry ingredients (almond flour, baking powder, and xanthan gum).
  • Once thoroughly mixed, pour the batter into the 9X9" pan. Spread the batter evenly throughout the pan and bake for 20-25 minutes. Chocolate based baked goods are harder to determine when fully cooked, so use a toothpick to check the center and do not over bake! If you use an 8x8" or a glass baking dish, you may have to add additional baking time. Remove the brownies and let them fully cool before frosting.
  • To make the Irish cream whipped cream, beat the heavy cream in a bowl until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sweetener, espresso powder, and whiskey and mix until stiff peaks form. Use a spatula to spread the whipped cream over the top of the cooled brownies. Sprinkle with extra espresso powder or cocoa powder if desired. Cut into 16 squares. Store in the fridge.

Notes

If you want to make regular brownies, omit the espresso powder and whiskey and add in a teaspoon of vanilla instead.
