Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan. - Make the Crust:
In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, low-carb sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form an even crust. - Prepare the Filling:
In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Add eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract, and low-carb powdered sweetener. Mix until well combined. - Layer and Bake:
Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust in the baking pan.
Smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set, and the center is slightly jiggly. - Cool and Chill:
Allow the Keto Gooey Butter Cake to cool completely in the pan.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to firm up the texture. - Slice and Serve:
Once chilled, slice into squares or bars.
