Equipment
- Frying Pan
- Whisk
- Blender
- Oven
- Large Pot
- Wooden Spoon
- Mixing Bowl
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 4 ounces Lily’s Sweets Baking Chips
- ¼ cup butter
- 2 eggs eggs
- 3 Tablespoons Truvia Baking Blend
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons Truvia Baking Blend
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. This ensures that your brownies bake evenly. While the oven is heating up, line an 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the Lily’s Sweets Baking Chips and butter together. Heat them in 20-second increments, stirring in between until smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together eggs, Truvia Baking Blend, and vanilla extract. Once combined, stir in the melted chocolate mixture until everything is well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and kosher salt. Gradually fold this dry mix into the chocolate mixture until just combined.
- Set aside ¾ cup of the batter for topping later. Pour the remaining batter into the lined baking dish.
- In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, additional Truvia Baking Blend, and homemade sugar-free Irish cream. Beat until smooth.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture over the brownie base in the pan. Then, dollop the reserved brownie batter over the cheesecake layer.
- Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
- Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan. Then refrigerate before cutting.
