Keto Brownies

They call this a diet….

I don’t crave sweets often, but when I do…I go in hard!  Enjoy!

NOTE: erythritol and stevia are meant to be used together.  Stevia is a sweetener enhancer.  So, if your having trouble with your recipes, try it.  Erythritol has a slightly “cooling effect” and stevia can have a somewhat bitter after taste.  Together, they cancel the after tastes out.  Look for my post coming soon if you want to know the science behind it!
