Sugar Free Cookie Dough (Chocolate Chip)
Description
The recipe uses almond flour as the base, which provides a coarse, nutty crumb texture, combined with heavy cream for moisture and richness. Vanilla extract and powdered sweetener add flavor and sweetness without sugar. Dark, sugar-free chocolate chips provide bursts of chocolate flavor throughout the dough. The mixture is combined gently to maintain the texture and then rolled into small balls roughly 15 grams each.
An optional chocolate ganache topping can be made by melting sugar-free chocolate chips with unsalted butter, providing a creamy coating to decorate or dip the cookie dough balls. This addition adds richness and contrast in texture.
These cookie dough bites function as a sugar-free treat in modest portions. Adjusting the sweetness to taste is recommended prior to shaping.
For a drier or crumblier texture, an additional tablespoon of coconut flour may be incorporated. Ground almonds can substitute almond flour with a slight quantity adjustment due to their coarser texture.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour (100g) ***
- ¼ cup heavy cream 60g, double
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon powdered sweetener or 2, depending how sweet you like it
- ¼ cup dark chocolate chips 40g, sugar free
For the optional chocolate ganache:
- 2 tablespoon chocolate chips 20g, sugar free
- 1 tablespoon butter unsalted
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients in a bowl, adding the chocolate chips last.
- Don't forget to taste and adjust the sweetness if necessary!
- Roll into balls.
Chocolate Ganache
- Melt the chocolate and butter in the microwave (gentle heat!) or in a water bath. Mix.
- Fill into a plastic sandwich or freezer bag, pinch off a corner/poke a hole into it and get decorating. You can also fold baking paper into a triangular shape so it makes a funnel and pinch off the bottom. Alternatively, just dunk the balls in the melted chocolate mix.
Notes
- Ground almonds can substitute almond flour; add a couple extra teaspoons for coarser texture.
- The cookie dough balls are about 15 grams each, roughly two bites per ball.
- Two cookie dough balls make a reasonable serving size for dessert or snack.
- Nutritional information is calculated per one cookie dough ball and does not include the chocolate ganache.
- If sugar-free chocolate chips are unavailable, very dark chocolate (85–90% cocoa solids) can be chopped into small pieces as an alternative.
- For a drier texture, add one tablespoon of coconut flour.
