BEST KETO CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES | How to make Keto Cookies

When you are craving a treat, you need to try this keto chocolate chip cookie recipe! I posted this recipe for keto cookies a few months ago on my instagram and it has become my most popular keto recipe. These keto chocolate chip cookies are the closest thing most people have tried to a real chocolate chip cookie. They are chewy, soft and don’t have a weird fake sugar flavor like some keto cookies can have. Many of my followers agree they are the best keto chocolate chip cookies they have had.

In this video, I show you how to make these keto cookies. These easy keto cookies can be made in less than 30 minutes. So when that craving for a cookie or keto chocolate chip cookie dough hit, you can satisfy it quickly. If you are looking for keto cookies using almond flour then definitely watch this!

I came up with this recipe for keto chocolate cookies on accident. I was making my keto butter bars (recipe on my instagram) and accidently added too much almond flour. Instead of tossing out all the dough, I decided to turn it into something. The dough looked similar to cookie dough, so I add an egg, baking powder and chocolate chips. Then baked them. And that’s how the best keto cookies were created. LOL!

These keto chocolate chip cookies can be made for Santa on Christmas Eve. He might be on a keto diet. We are leaving Santa keto Christmas cookies this year. ;) They make the perfect keto Christmas treats.

I usually don't comment but I wanted you to know I made these cookies, with only the almond flour. I didn't have heavy whipping cream, so I used sour cream instead and they looked exactly like these in the video, made 18. Was my first keto cookie. I'm type 2 diabetic on insulin so carbs had to go. Ty for all you do to make sure we can eat.

Btw, so that you won't have to pay extortionate prices for the keto chocolate, just get 99% pure chocolate and add in a erythritol/stevia blend which is 1:1 with sugar and doesn't have the icky taste of its components. You'll save yourself 60% of the cost. The blend ratios are online.

Just made these. They are amazing! These are legit good chocolate chip cookies, not just a keto compromise that'll get you by. I made them exactly as you said with two changes. I swapped out the monk fruit with more swerve since I don't have monk fruit, and as one of the commenters suggested, I baked at 300 and took them out at 16 minutes. They're so good, light, and soft. Wonderful! Thank you!!

I made these yesterday. This is my go-to recipe from now on. Cookies are firm and taste great 👍!

I'd suggest a lower temperature, as it would yield a fully brown cookie. 350 kinda burns them on the sides, but a lower temperature cooks more evenly. I did 300 for a longer time.

I just made these and they turned out really good however I had to make some tweaks because I think the ratio of dry ingredients to liquid in the recipe is a bit off. I had to add 2 more tablespoons of cream to fix that. I also tried substituting 1 cup of the almond flour for 1/2 cup arrowroot flour & 1/2 cup millet flour. It came out real nice as well.

Made these today, 7-24-19. My grandson, the pickiest of picky eaters, gave them an A+. My wife said, “OMG, these are good! Don’t make them very often!” Thanks for posting this recipe.

I’ve found that more than a few grams of alcohol sugars gives me digestive distress (bloating, gas etc.). For others that do experience those same symptoms, this recipe has three sources of the alcohol sugar erythritol -

Lakanto - 1/2 Cup = 96g erythritol
Swerve - 1/4 Cup = 48g erythritol
Lily’s baking chips - 1/2 bag = 18g erythritol
Total per batch = 162g
Per cookie (18) = 9g

Just thought people with sensitive stomachs/intestines might appreciate this info.

I made these today and substituted Brown sugar Swerve for the monk fruit sweetener. I got 22 cookies. They are delicious and have an amazing texture and flavor.

[shirleytomlian]

I just made these, wonderful recipe, yummy, thank you so much. Even my husband liked them.

[cherylgriffin]

I just love the keto diet and listening to all your suggestions you can make so much thank you

[TamiShey]

This melt in your mouth but for me next time I will lover the sugar because Lily’s chocolate has enough sweetness to it thank you 🙏

[JSPAULDING]

Definitely going to give these a try. Kids will love making them. Thanks for the recipe!

[littleyolis]

I just made these! I made the first half of the batch without refrigerating them (because I wanted to eat them ASAP 😆), but I did refrigerate the second half. I found that they taste the same, but dough is much more malleable when they are refrigerated, so they look much better when they bake.

[cribri]

These cookies were amazing! From one wife to another, you have been making my family's keto transition so easy!

[nabilabizri]

Just tried them ... best keto cookies by far!

[healwithmarianna]

I added cinnamon essential oil and they turned out 😋 delicious

[heatherjackson]

Tried these tonight and they are delicious!!! Thank you soooo much for sharing. :)

I was wondering, why do you use Swerve as well as Monk fruit sweetener? Can I just use monk fruit? We’ve tried Swerve and we don’t really like the taste of it ☹️
