Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring the paper extends over the edges for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar substitute using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
Stir in the sugar-free chocolate chips by hand, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Add the unsweetened almond milk to the dough and gently fold it in to achieve a soft, spreadable mixture.
Transfer the dough to the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly to the edges of the pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and slice into 16 squares.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
