Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies

Servings – 7 - 3" Large Cookies or 10 - 2" Medium Cookies Prep Time – 5 Minutes Cook Time: 10 to 15 Minutes

Ingredients:

1/2 cup unsalted butter 1 stick, softened
1/3 cup sugar- free sweetener, of choice
1 large egg
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 2/3 cups fine almond flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 cup sugar-free chocolate chips, of your choice - I love Lilly's chocolate chips they are great for Keto: in this particular batch I used Hershey Zero-Sugar chips
1/4 chopped nuts, optional - I used walnuts -for me... It's not worth turning the oven on if there aren't nuts in my chocolate chip cookies, brownies or banana bread! 🤣

Directions:

Add the butter and sugar to a stand mixer and beat until combined and fluffy (note: you can also use a mixing bowl and an electric hand whisk).

Use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl and beat in the egg and vanilla extract.

Scrape the sides of the bowl again and add the remaining dry ingredients; except for the chocolate chips. Beat on high speed until everything is incorporated and a sticky dough forms.

Using the rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl again to ensure all of the ingredients are mixed together very well; now add in the chocolate chips, mix to combine. (Keep a couple of chips aside, you can add these to the tops of the hot baked cookies for the WOW factor!- TRUST ME... It's worth it!)

Refrigerate the dough for 1 or 2 hours before baking. If you can't wait; you can bake the cookies right away. (But... they will spread more for a flatter crispier cookie, and also may not hold together well due to the almond flour. BUT thats ok too! - it's your preference!)

When you’re ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

For the large cookies, measure out a 1/3 cup or use a large 3" cookie scoop; for the medium cookies use 1/4 cup or medium 2" cookie scoop of dough, pressing and flattening the top against the bowl removing the heap top mound and place it on the baking sheet.

Repeat for remaining cookie dough (there should be 7 large or 10 medium balls of dough total). Note that the dough will spread during the baking process so be sure to leave ample room between balls of dough.

Bake for 11 to 15 minutes, or until the cookies reach your preferred level of "done-ness".

Chewy cookies will need 10 to 12 minutes on the dot and crispier cookies will require 12 to 15.

Remove cookies from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before digging in! This is the most cruital step... Leave them on the pan to become stable enough to move for about 15 minutes. If you go after them right away, they will fall apart easily, and crumble... so for best results, wait for at least 15 minutes before diving in. IT's WORTH IT...

I PROMISE! ✌🏻🍪

Notes:

Storage tips? You bet!Keep them in an airtight container on the counter for up to 3 days. After that, pop them in the fridge or freeze them like a pro: wrap in plastic wrap, seal in a zip-top bag, and you’re golden. Gooey cookie goodness anytime you need it. 💜

You can also use brown sugar-sweetener in place of the regular granulated-sweetener. The texture will be a little more on the softer side... but not by much!

If you don’t follow a keto or low-carb diet, but still have to use almond flour due to a gluten free diet... replace the sugar-free sweetener with regular brown sugar.
