World's Best Keto Cheesecake Brownies #keto #brownies

Fudgy Keto Cheesecake Brownies with a thick cheesecake swirl! An easy Keto dessert!

For these brownies you will make a nice fudgy brownie batter, it will be quite thick so when you scrape it into your baking pan make sure you spread it evenly all the way to the corners. The cheesecake filling is also thick, so creating a really pretty swirl effect is difficult, just swirl the mixture the best you can but be careful not to over mix it so you do have those nice big cheesecake layers.

Ingredients:

For the brownies:

• 8 tablespoons butter, melted
• 3/4 cup Swerve granulated sugar substitute. (Erythritol only, no substitutions)
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup almond flour

For the cheesecake layer:

• 4 ounces softened cream cheese
• 3 tablespoon swerve sweetener (confectioners best here instead of granulated, but granulated will work if it is all you have)
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl combine the melted butter, Swerve sugar substitute, and cocoa powder until completely combined.
4. Mix in the eggs, stir well.
5. Add the almond flour and salt, stir well.
6. Mixture will be thick.
7. Spread the brownie mixture to all four corners of your baking pan, set aside.
8. In a blender or food processor add the cream cheese, swerve sugar substitute, heavy cream and vanilla extract and blend for 15 seconds, scrape down the edges and blend again.
9. Spoon the cheesecake mixture in lumps onto the brownie batter, and swirl.
10. Both the brownie and the cheesecake layer are quite thick, they will probably not create beautiful "swirls" but the thickness does create really great layers of sweet cheesecake and fudgy brownie.
11. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
12. Allow to cool and slice, store in the refrigerator.
