how to make these keto chocolate chip cookies
- Make the cookie dough. Mix softened butter with the erythritol using a handheld mixer. Then add in the eggs, followed by the remaining ingredients. Chill in the freezer for 15 mins.
- Portion out the dough. Use a 1 ½ inch cookie scooper to drop cookie dough balls onto the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Add extra chocolate chips now on top of the cookie dough balls if desired.
- Bake. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Let cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to continue cooling.
- Sprinkle with sea salt, serve and enjoy!
recipe notes and tips
- Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temp. This means they’ll incorporate into the dough better.
- You can swap the butter out for ghee.
- If the cookies don’t drop into cookie shapes in the oven within the first 5 minutes, you can easily press them down with fork midway through cooking.
- If you are not using 100% pure erythritol, your cookies will not flatten completely.
- Ideally use a good quality, grass-fed, butter. Grass-fed butter contains up to 6 times more CLA which can help your body burn fat properly.
- Use a wire rack to help the cookies cool properly, so they won’t have a soggy base.
- You can swap the chocolate chips for walnuts if you like.
- You can omit the sea salt if you wish, but it does add a lovely flavor profile.
- These Keto Cookies are done when the edges are starting to brown. They will still be lovely and soft on the inside!
- If you want crispier Keto Cookies, bake them for a little bit longer. Remove from the oven when the edges go a little darker brown.
faq’s
Can I eat Cookies on the Keto diet?
If the cookies you are having are keto-friendly, meaning they are low in carbs the answer is yes! You can certainly have keto cookies when you are on a keto diet. These Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies are keto-friendly and low in carbs because I used sugar-free chocolate chips. Go right ahead and indulge.
What kind of Chocolate can I eat on keto?
Some wonder if chocolate is allowed on a ketogenic diet? So long as they are sugar-free like what I used on my Keto chocolate chip recipe or it is dark chocolate that consists of at least about 70% cocoa solids. Even better to use 100% Unsweetened Chocolate.
how to store these keto cookies
These Keto Chocolate Chip cookies will store perfectly on the counter for a few days.
If you want them to last longer, they can be kept in the refrigerator for 10 days, or you can freeze them. If freezing, be sure to wrap them in parchment paper and not plastic wrap, this will keep them from getting soggy.
