HERE IS MY RECIPE FOR MIRACLE BROWNIES THAT I HAVE ADAPTED FROM THE RECIPE FOUND HERE.
Total Time: 55 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1/2 stick of butter
- 1 cup Stevia
- 1 Tbsp vanilla
- 2 eggs (room temp is best)
- 1/4 cup cocoa
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted
- 1 cups flax seed meal
- 1/2 T. baking powder
- 6 T. heavy whipping cream
- 1/3 cup water
Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 F and grease a 8X8 pan.
1) Cream the butter until fluffy.
2) Add the stevia to the butter and cream them together until fully combined (aim for a fluffy texture).
3) Add the vanilla and beat the eggs into the mixture, one at a time.
4) Add salt and cocoa, beat well.
5) Add chocolate, beat until fluffy.
6) Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well to combine.
7) Pour into a pan and bake for 30-35 minutes until top springs back. (You can also test if they're ready by sticking a toothpick in the brownies. If it comes out clean, or almost-so, they're done.)

~ CARB COUNT BREAKDOWN ~
Actual Brownies:
- 1/2 stick of butter ~ 0g net carbs
- 1 cup Stevia ~ 25g carbs, but I am counting 0g net carbs -All the "carbs" in stevia / erythritol are sugar alcohols, so they have a net count of 0.
- 1 Tbsp vanilla ~ 0g net carbs
- 2 eggs (room temp is best) ~ 1g net carbs
- 1/4 cup cocoa ~ 4g net carbs
- 1/2 tsp salt ~ 0g net carbs
- 2 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted ~ 6g net carbs
- 1 cups flax seed meal ~ 0g net carbs
- 1/2 T. baking powder ~ 0g net carbs
- 6 T. heavy whipping cream ~ 3g net carbs
- 1/3 cup water ~ 0g net carbs
Topping:
- 1/2 c. heavy whipping cream ~ 4g net carbs
- 2 oz. unsweetened chocolate, melted ~ 6g net carbs
- 1 T. butter ~ 0g net carbs
- 4-5 T. Stevia ~ I am counting 0g net carbs -All the "carbs" in stevia / erythritol are sugar alcohols, so they have a net count of 0.
- 1 tsp. vanilla ~ 0g net carbs
- 1/4 c. Chopped Pecans ~ 1g net carbs
TOTAL CARBS FOR THE ENTIRE BROWNIE RECIPE IS ~ 25g Net Carbs
Divide the 25g. of net carbs by the number of squares to figure the net carb count in each brownie.
