Double Chocolate Muffins - low carb

Double Chocolate Muffins

Ingredients
1 cup almond flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 cup xylitol
1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 eggs
2/3 cup Heavy Cream
3 ounces Butter unsalted, melted
1/2 cup Sugar Free Chocolate Chips (I used chopped up Olivia's 100% chocolate w/ out any sugar or sweeteners and 1/2 c. xylitol)

Instructions
Preheat oven to 175C/350F.
In a bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener and baking powder.
Add the vanilla extract, eggs, and heavy cream. Mix well.
Add the melted butter and combine.
Add the sugar-free chocolate chips and stir well.
Spoon the mixture into 12 holes of a standard muffin tray that has been lined with cupcake papers.
Bake for 20 minutes, the muffins will look puffed up and slightly spring back when touched.
Allow to cool in the muffin tin, or eat them straight away – beware of the molten chocolate chips. The muffins will shrink back a little as they cool.

Store in covered container with a paper towel to cover to keep dry.
