Preheat your oven to 180Β°C (350Β°F) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing the paper to overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once completely melted, remove from heat and stir in the unsweetened cocoa powder, mixing until fully combined to form a smooth chocolate mixture.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and erythritol until well combined and slightly frothy. Add the vanilla extract and continue whisking.
Gradually add the chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring continuously to slowly incorporate.
In a separate bowl, sift together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until well combined.
Stir in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and walnuts, if using.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes. Use the parchment paper to lift them out of the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cut into 12 squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
