Keto Chocolate Brownie Bottom Cheesecake. Until it is combined with cream cheese, you can’t beat chocolate. That sentence just kept on getting better, right?
Chocolate is always a privilege. There is nothing better than a chocolate-flavored dessert, but when it’s low-carb, it’s even better.
You will need a pinch of salt, baking powder, eggs, heavy cream, butter, vanilla extract, erythritol, and unsweetened cocoa powder for the brownie layer.
To the usual brownie base, this is a healthy upgrade, which includes table sugar and white flour. Just thinking about these ingredients makes our sugar levels spike!
Additionally, our healthy brownies provide a good source of protein, fiber, B vitamins, dietary magnesium, and polyphenols.
But this dessert can make you happy is the most important fact about it. Don’t believe us? Research shows that to release hormones known as endorphins, cocoa stimulates our brain, which triggers our brain’s “reward system” and promotes a feeling of positivity.
