Fold in 1/3 of the sugar-free chocolate chips
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle remaining chocolate chips on top
Bake for 25 minutes, then cool completely before cutting into 16 squares
If using coconut flour, mix 1/4 cup coconut flour with 3/4 cup almond flour and add an extra egg to adjust for absorbency
Press the batter firmly into the pan before baking to prevent sinking
