These low carb fudge brownies are so rich and fudgy it's hard to distinguish them from the real thing. A welcoming treat for the chocolate lover's sweet tooth.
Print Recipe
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8×8 inch pan.
In the large bowl of an electric mixer, cream ½ cup butter, softened. Add 2 eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
In separate bowl, combine sweeteners, Carbquik, pecans (if using), cocoa, and chocolate chips. Add dry mix to egg mixture and beat until smooth.
Spread into greased pan and bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted into the center, comes out clean.
Carbquik can be replaced with a blend of almond and coconut flour in a 4:1 or 3:1 ratio for gluten-free brownies. I like to use about 6 tablespoons almond flour and 2 tablespoons coconut flour. You can add a bit of xanthan gum (about a teaspoon) to help with texture.
If PlyD is omitted, some may want to add a little more sweetener or a touch of blackstrap molasses. You can also replace it with a tablespoon or two of fiber syrup like Sukrin clear.
