Recipe Ingredients

For the Chocolate Crust

  • 1 1/4 cups Almond Flour
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1/4 cup Powdered Erythritol
  • 5 tbsp Butter, Melted
  • 1 pinch Salt

For the Silk Filling

  • 1 cup Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 1/2 cup Butter, Softened
  • 4 oz Cream Cheese, Softened
  • 2/3 cup Powdered Erythritol
  • 2 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream

For the Topping

  • 3/4 cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tbsp Powdered Erythritol
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 oz Sugar Free Dark Chocolate, Grated

How To Make

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on two sides.

Step 2

Mix the almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, salt and melted butter until evenly moistened. Press firmly into the pan, bake for 10 minutes, then cool completely.

Step 3

Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth. Let cool for about 10 minutes, until barely warm but still fluid.

Step 4

Beat the softened butter, cream cheese and powdered erythritol for 3 minutes until light and fluffy. Beat in the cooled chocolate, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt until silky.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream to stiff peaks. Fold it into the chocolate mixture in two additions until no streaks remain.

Step 6

Spread the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top. Chill for at least 4 hours, until firm.

Step 7

Whip the topping cream with the erythritol and vanilla to medium-stiff peaks and spread it over the bars. Sprinkle with grated chocolate and slice into 16 bars.

Tips

Use Powdered Sweetener Only

Make sure your erythritol is a fine powder rather than granular. Granular erythritol does not dissolve in cold dairy, which leaves you with a gritty filling.

If you only have granular sweetener in your pantry, you can pulse it in a clean blender until it looks like powdered sugar. That simple step ensures your French silk layer stays completely smooth.

Cool the Melted Chocolate Properly

You will get the best results if you let the melted chocolate cool down until it is barely lukewarm. It should still be pourable, but not warm to the touch.

If the chocolate is hot, it will melt your softened butter and turn the filling thin and runny. If it gets too cold, it will harden into firm bits instead of blending smoothly.

Fully Soften the Dairy Ingredients

From my experience, the butter and cream cheese need to be truly soft before you start mixing. Take them out of the refrigerator an hour or two before you plan to bake.

Cold dairy leaves tiny lumps throughout the chocolate that are impossible to beat out later. You want the base completely creamy before adding anything else.
