Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter in 10-15 second increments, then set it aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, sugar substitute, baking powder, and salt until fully combined and free of lumps.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Stir in the cooled melted butter and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until well blended into a smooth batter.
Fold in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips to evenly distribute them in the batter.
Transfer the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to spread it evenly to the edges.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking).
Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan. Slice into 12 even squares and serve.
