Chocolate Mud Bars Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the Stevia.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the butter mixture, stirring until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips and nuts (if using).
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
