We adored this Keto-friendly dessert. If you've been on a low carb plan and looking for a sweet treat give these fudgy brownies a try. They have a different texture and taste than regular brownies, so if you don't follow a Keto lifestyle you may not like these. Chia seeds add a slightly nutty flavor. Soft and gooey, these brownies trick your taste buds into thinking they're full of carbs.
Note: Make sure to let these cool completely before slicing or they will fall apart (they'll be just as good, just not as pretty). Also, if you can't find ground chia deeds, just run chia seeds through the food processor until they are ground very fine.

How to Make Fudgy Keto Brownies
- Combine melted butter and erythritol. Let sit for 5 minutes to dissolve the sweetener.
- Add sucralose (Splenda) and cocoa powder. Stir until smooth.
- Add eggs and vanilla.
- Mix until eggs are incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, combine the rest of the dry ingredients and stir together until well blended.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. The batter should be thick and fudgy.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Spray or grease a parchment paper lined 8x8 square pan or pie dish. Pour batter into the pan.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 16-20 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE!! The brownies will still be a little gooey in the middle when they are done. If you over bake the brownies will be dry and lose the fudgy texture.
- Let cool for 15-20 minutes before serving. Tip: Cut warm brownies with a plastic knife and they will hold their shape better.
