I feel like I’ve done quite a few desserts lately. It might be the colder weather and holidays approaching that has me in the mood for desserts. Just because it’s the holidays doesn’t mean we need to break our whole way of eating. Especially when you’ve got these Keto Cream Cheese Brownies.

You’ve got two amazing layers in these Cream Cheese Brownies.

  1. Brownie Layer – Mmm brownies. We used our Keto Brownies recipe making a few tweaks to it for this recipe. Super fudgy and satisfyingly packed with chocolate. You can use pretty much any brownie recipe out there, even our Low Carb Brownies recipe would be a good base.
  2. Cheesecake Layer – Mmm cheesecakeeeeee. We’ve made a keto cheesecake a couple weeks back and it has easily become one of my favorite recipes. It was only natural that I pair it with my favorite brownie recipe.

So that is how these Keto Cream Cheese Brownies were born! Simply putting together two of my favorite desserts. Your guests will be SO surprised when you tell them it is low carb. Really you don’t even have to tell them. 😉

HOW MANY NET CARBS PER Keto Cream Cheese Brownie

6 Net CarbÂper brownie. These are actually large portioned brownies so if you’d like to cut this in half to lower the serving size and carb count it will still be very satisfying.

Note: The Net Carbs per serving is by subtracting the sugar alcohol erythritol. If you’d like to use another form of sugar alcohol be sure to check out our low carb sweetener conversion chart.

My family does subtract the sugar alcohols and I’ll continue to provide that sugar alcohol grams above the nutrition card below and you can decide for yourself if you want to follow that.

If you are new to this Low Carb/Keto lifestyle and are unsure what we are talking about please feel free toÂread up more on Net Carbs and why people do or don’t subtract sugar alcohols.

      To calculate the net carbs you need to subtract the sugar alcohols from the total carbs. That brings it down to 4 net carbs per serving – assuming a serving is 1/9th of the pan.

      I’m making this right now for my daughters birthday dinner tomorrow. Smells pretty good! Hope it will taste good for her too!
