Description
These Keto German Chocolate Brownies are a low-carb twist on the classic dessert, featuring a rich brownie base topped with a gooey coconut-pecan frosting and a drizzle of sugar-free chocolate.
Ingredients
- 1 recipe ultimate keto brownies (omit the chocolate chips)
- 1/3 cup whipping cream
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1/4 cup Swerve Granular
