DIRECTIONS:

BROWNIE BITES

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350F and line a mini muffin pan with 24 parchment or silicone liners.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetener, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk in the cocoa powder, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in 3 tbsp water, adding more slowly to thin the batter as necessary. (Batter should be spreadable but not pourable).

Step 3

Divide the batter among the prepared mini muffin cups and bake about 15 minutes, until puffed and just firm to the touch. Remove and let cool about 10 minutes, then use the end of a wooden spoon to create deep wells in the center of each.

Let cool completely.

PRALINE FILLING

Step 1

In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Remove from heat and whisk in the two sweeteners until mostly dissolved. Whisk in the cream and stir in the pecans.

Step 2

Spoon into the brownie bites and let set 10 minutes.
