- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup butter (melted)
- 1/4 cup butter (soft)

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line an 8×8 pan with parchment.
- In a bowl, mix almond flour, 1/4 cup granular sweetener, and 1/4 tsp salt.
- Stir in 1/4 cup melted butter until the mix holds together.
- Press the mix evenly into the pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes until light golden. Let cool.
- In a bowl, beat 1/4 cup soft butter with 1/4 cup brown sugar replacement and 1/4 cup allulose until smooth.
- Add heavy cream, eggs, vanilla, and 1/4 tsp salt. Mix well.
- Stir in chopped pecans and sugar-free chocolate chips.

Notes
Use room temperature eggs for smooth mixing. Do not overbake; the center will set as it cools. Chill bars before cutting for clean edges.
