Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix almond flour, cocoa powder, granulated erythritol, and baking powder.
In a small saucepan, melt unsalted butter over medium heat. Whisk in heavy cream and then add in the dry flour mix. Stir until it forms a dough.
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until smooth.
Spoon or pipe the dough onto the baking sheet into 8 equal mounds.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until puffs are set and slightly puffed. Cool completely.
For the filling, sprinkle gelatin over water and let it bloom for 5 minutes.
In a small saucepan, heat the sugar-free dark chocolate chips, whipping cream, and vanilla extract over low heat. Stir constantly until the chocolate melts.
Remove from heat and add in the bloomed gelatin. Stir until fully dissolved. Cool to room temperature.
In a separate bowl, beat the whipping cream with powdered erythritol until soft peaks form.
Fold the cooled chocolate mixture into the whipped cream.
Slice each cream puff horizontally and fill with chocolate cream. Replace the tops and serve.
