OK so for the most part I try not to partake in any additional sweets, or flours of any kind. Even though on the weekends I go a little crazy with some keto dessert recipes. I keep them very limited (ok, I try to) because I feel like my body responds better to a strict Keto diet. But sometimes you just want a treat – and these keto-friendly brownies are just the thing! I would recommend some whipped cream to add for moistness, and maybe even some heavy whipping cream to be added to the recipe. This was my first time making them, and I’m sure I’ll play around with it a bit more before it’s just right.
