- Allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Serving Suggestions (Keto-Friendly!)
These keto chocolate brownies are rich and indulgent on their own—but here are a few low-carb ways to level them up:
-
Top with whipped cream: A dollop of homemade whipped cream (use a keto-friendly sweetener like erythritol or monk fruit) adds a light, creamy contrast.
-
Drizzle with sugar-free chocolate: Melt a little keto chocolate or dark chocolate (85% or higher) and drizzle over the top for extra decadence.
-
Add berries (in moderation): A few raspberries or sliced strawberries add a tart, juicy bite without pushing the carbs too far.
-
Serve warm with keto ice cream: For a dessert that feels totally indulgent, pair with your favorite low-carb vanilla or chocolate ice cream.
-
Dust with cocoa or powdered erythritol: A light sprinkle adds a pretty finish and a touch of extra flavor—no sugar needed.
