Ingredients

Cream Together:

4 oz cream cheese, softened
2 oz unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup Sukrin :1 (or Swerve Granulated)

1/2 tsp lemon zest
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients:

1/2 cup Bob’s Red Mill Coconut Flour
1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp xanthan gum

Wet Ingredients:

3 large eggs

1/4 cup heavy cream

Fold:

4 oz strawberries, small dice

3 tbsp Lily’s Sugar-free Chocolate Chips

Directions

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and place rack in the middle position. Line 6 standard muffin wells with paper liners. Dice the strawberries. Zest the lemon. Mix the dry ingredients together.

Method:

Cream together the first five ingredients with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Add 1 egg and cream again.
Add 1/3 of the dry ingredients beating well, followed by another egg. Repeat. Make sure to keep a light mousse-like texture through out mixing. Add the last of the dry ingredients, followed by the heavy cream. Fold in 1/2 of the strawberries and 1/2 of the chocolate chips. The batter will be very thick.
Spoon the batter into a zip-loc bag and cut a large hole in one of the corners. Squeeze the batter into each liner, mounding in the center. Alternately, use a muffin scoop. Sprinkle erythritol on the top of the muffins to prevent browning. Arrange the remaining strawberries and chocolate chips on top.

Bake:

Place the muffin tin into the middle of the oven and turn the oven up to 400 for 6 minutes. Turn the oven back down to 350 and bake for 12-18 minutes more. The tops should be firm to the touch but still sound a little moist. Cool completely on a wire rack. Keep in the refrigerator and warm gently before enjoying. 4 net carbs each.
