Keto Brownies with Frosting

I may be addicted to chocolate. Honestly, who isn’t? When I started my keto journey, I was so upset at the loss of my favorite dessert! But thankfully, I have cracked the code on keto chocolate goodies! Whether it’s a Brownie Pie, Chocolate Cheesecake, Chocolate Cookies or Almond Butter Cups, a keto chocolate dessert is always a win in our house!

These Keto Brownies with Frosting are a great addition to my keto dessert arsenal. Velvety cream cheese is mixed with fresh raspberries for the perfect frosting atop an amazing almond flour brownie! Raspberries are one of the healthiest fruits, being packed with fiber and coming in at only 7 grams of net carbs for one entire cup! These brownies are keto, low carb and gluten free!

Ingredients for Keto Frosting

• Cream cheese
• Butter
• Raspberries
• Confectioner’s monkfruit sweetener
• Vanilla extract

How to Make Low Carb Brownies

First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Mix your butter and granulated monkfruit sweetener with an electric mixer until completely combined. Mix in the eggs one at a time then add the oil and vanilla. In a bowl, mix the almond flour, baking powder, salt and cocoa powder together.

Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture while the mixer is slowly turning. Using an 8×8 pan (this is very important- do not use a 9×9 pan. Your brownies will be too thin and overcooked) that is lined with parchment paper, spread your brownie mixture in the pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the brownies are set. Allow to cool completely before slicing.

How to Make Keto Frosting

Combine the cream cheese, butter, raspberries, half of the sweetener and vanilla and beat with an electric mixer. Scrape the sides down and add the rest of the sweetener until the frosting reaches your desired consistency. If the frosting seems to not be reaching the consistency you prefer, add one tablespoon of almond milk, heavy cream or additional sweetener.

One important note- monkfruit confectioner’s sweetener can clump easier than traditional confectioner’s sugar. To prevent this, sift your sugar before blending. This will result in a creamier, smoother frosting.

How to store raspberry brownies

To store these brownies, place in a resealable bag or a container with lid and leave on the counter. These brownies will stay fresh for up to four days.

How many carbs in Keto Brownies?

These brownies come in at only 3.9 grams of net carbs per brownie!

Can I eat brownies on keto?

Absolutely! You just have to be sure to prepare your brownies with a keto sweetener, such as monkfruit or Swerve. You will also need sugar free chocolate chips or baking chocolate.

Tips for the Best Keto Desserts

• Be sure to use almond flour instead of another flour substitute.
• Make sure you spread your brownie mixture evenly across your pan
• Only use an 8×8 pan– a 9×9 pan will result in brownies that are too thin and they will overcook
• I recommend sifting your monkfruit confectioner’s sweetener- this will keep the sweetener from clumping and will give your frosting a creamier texture
