Peanut Butter Fudge Brownies
We had a small party this weekend and I made these brownies as a lower carb dessert. They were awesome! Even the non-LCers loved them.
* Exported from MasterCook * Peanut Butter Fudge Brownies Recipe By : Serving Size : 0 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Cookies Cookies - Bar Low Carb Quick & Easy Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- Brownie Base: 12 tbsp butter 4 oz unsweetened chocolate 1/4 cup cocoa powder 3/4 cup Swerve Sweetener or other erythritol 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 5 large eggs Peanut Butter Fudge: 3/4 cup peanut butter 6 tbsp butter 1/2 tsp vanilla 1/4 tsp salt 3/4 cup to 1 cup powered Swerve Sweetener -- sifted Chocolate Drizzle: 1 ounce high % cacao chocolate Yield: 36 bite-sized brownies Serving Size: 2 brownies Brownies: Preheat oven to 325F and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper with overhanging edges for easier brownie removal. Melt butter, chocolate and cocoa powder together in a medium saucepan, stirring until smooth. Stir in erythritol and vanilla extract. Let cool 5 minutes. Whisk in eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Spread mixture in prepared pan. Bake 15 minutes, or until just barely set and middle is still not quite cooked. Watch them carefully as they can get quite dry if overdone. The edges will rise a little higher but should recede as they cool. Let cool in pan 10 minutes. Peanut Butter Fudge: In a smal saucepan over medium heat, melt together peanut butter and butter. Stir in vanilla and salt. Stir in powdered erythritol a little at a time until the mixture thickens to a spreadable consistency. Spread over cooled brownies and refrigerate 1 hour, until set. Chocolate Drizzle: In a small, microwavable safe bowl, melt chocolate by heating in microwave in 30 second increments. Stir until smooth. Drizzle over peanut butter fudge. Let set at least 10 minutes. Lift brownies out by edges of parchment. Cut into 1-inch squares. Notes Serves 18. Each serving has 5 g of carbs and 2 g of fiber. Total NET CARBS = 3 g.

So I've been trying to find out what people think of swerve. Is that what you used?
I just change sweetners if I can. The recipe looks really good.

I can attest that they are awesome. I haven't done much baking the last few months, but I made the PB brownies recently for an upcoming event, and they were really fabulous. DH and I have been LCIng for years, and we love Carolyn's recipes. He said it was possibly the best LC dessert I've made yet. THe man adores PB and choc together, however, so he's a little biased.
