Keto Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
This recipe blends softened butter and sugar-free sweetener until fluffy before incorporating an egg, creating a creamy base. Almond flour and cocoa powder provide structure and chocolate flavor, while baking soda and sea salt balance the sweetness. Sugar-free chocolate chips add bursts of melted chocolate in each bite.
After mixing, the dough is chilled for at least two hours to firm up, making it easier to portion and helping the cookies keep shape while baking. Baking at 375°F produces cookies that are soft in the center with slightly crisp edges. Cooling on the baking sheet then a wire rack ensures they set properly.
These cookies provide a chocolate treat with controlled carbs, suitable for keto diets. The absence of refined sugar and grain flours highlights the almond and cocoa flavors distinctly.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter or ghee or coconut oil, softened, quantity 1 stick
- 1/2 cup sugar-free sweetener
- 1 egg large
- 1 1/2 cups almond flour Super Fine
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt sea salt
- 1 cup sugar-free chocolate chips

- In a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar-free sweetener until light and fluffy. Add the egg and beat until combined. Scrape the edges of the stand mixer using a rubber spatula.
- In a separate bowl, stir together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and sea salt until well-combined. Pour the flour mixture into the stand mixer with the butter-sugar and beat on medium-high speed until a thick dough forms. Add in the chocolate chips/chunks and beat until combined.
- Refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or spray with cooking oil).
- Scoop mounds of dough using a small ice cream scooper or form dough into balls using your hand. Drop dough on a baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until cookies reach desired done-ness.
- Allow cookies to cool at least 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool the rest of the way.
