Ingredients
  

For the Blondies

  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, Melted
  • 3/4 cup Golden Monk Fruit Sweetener
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 large Egg Yolk
  • 1 tsp Blackstrap Molasses
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups Super-Fine Almond Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 tsp Ground Ginger
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Cloves
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp Salt

For the Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 4 oz Cream Cheese, Softened
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter, Softened
  • 1/3 cup Powdered Monk Fruit Sweetener
  • 1 tbsp Heavy Cream
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tsp Orange Zest

Equipment

  • hand mixer

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper.
  • Whisk the melted butter and golden sweetener until glossy. Add the egg, egg yolk, molasses and vanilla, and whisk until smooth. The small amount of molasses gives that true gingerbread flavor.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and salt. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a thick, spiced batter forms.
  • Spread the batter into the pan and bake for 24 to 28 minutes, until deep golden and just set in the center.
  • Let the blondies cool completely in the pan.
  • Beat the cream cheese and butter until fluffy, then add the powdered sweetener, heavy cream, vanilla and orange zest and beat until smooth.
  • Spread the frosting over the cooled blondies and cut into squares. Chill for 20 minutes first if you want extra clean edges.
