Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies – Cookies,
cookies, cookies! Shout it with me! I am so excited to bring you another
delicious keto cookie recipe. A nut-free keto cookie recipe at that. But this
time, it is a recipe from my super talented friend Cristina. She is the chef
behind the popular blog The Castaway Kitchen. We met online through social
media, and a shared love of blogging about real food. From there, it turned
into a real-life friendship when we met in Maui. You’ve got to love any friend
that shows up with a fresh batch of low carb cookies to your first meeting. It
was love at first bite! Not only does Cristina make delicious keto cookies, but
she also makes some incredible savory recipes also. In fact, she just wrote her
first cookbook. Be sure to read all about it below before skipping straight to
the sweet treat!
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 8 Minutes
Total Time: 18 Minutes
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract ( I use this brand)
- ⅓ cup granulated erythritol or other low-carb sweetener (I use this brand)
- ¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter, ghee or coconut oil, softened
- ⅓ cup plus 3 teaspoons coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon unflavored grass-fed beef gelatin (I use this brand)
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of fine Himalayan salt
- 1 (4-ounce) bar stevia-sweetened semisweet baking chocolate, finely chopped, or ½ cup stevia-sweetened semisweet chocolate chips (I use this brand)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with a fork or wire whisk until frothy. Add the vanilla extract, erythritol, and fat and whisk until well combined.
- Add the coconut flour, gelatin, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, mix the ingredients together until a dough forms.
- Fold the chopped chocolate into the dough.
- Using a medium-sized cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop up a mounded tablespoon of the dough and shape it into a 1-inch ball. Repeat with the rest of dough, placing the dough balls on the lined baking sheet, 2 inches apart. (You should have a total of twelve.)
- Using the palm of your hand, gently flatten the balls so they are about ½ inch thick. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool to room temperature on the baking sheet before handling. The more they cool, the chewier they will be. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
