Ingredients

• For the Brownie Batter:
• - 2/3 cup almond flour
• - 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• - 1/2 cup butter, melted
• - 2/3 cup granulated erythritol (or any keto-friendly sweetener)
• - 2 large eggs
• - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• - 1/4 teaspoon salt
• For the Cheesecake Swirl:
• - 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• - 1/4 cup granulated erythritol (or any keto-friendly sweetener)
• - 1 large egg
• - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, and salt for the brownie batter.
3. In a separate large bowl, beat the melted butter, erythritol, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
5. In another bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add in the erythritol, egg, and vanilla extract for the cheesecake swirl and beat until well combined.
6. Spread three-fourths of the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan. Pour the cheesecake swirl mixture on top and spread it evenly.
7. Drop spoonfuls of the remaining brownie batter on top of the cheesecake swirl. Use a knife or toothpick to create a swirl effect by gently dragging it through the layers.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are slightly crispy.
9. Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
10. Serve and enjoy!
