Deep, rich, fudgy, and completely flourless homemade keto chocolate cookies!
Keto Chocolate Cookies
Don’t be surprised if the entire batch quickly disappears.
The recipe can be vegan, gluten free, soy free, low carb, paleo, and keto friendly.
It’s been a while since I last posted a keto recipe, and I’ve received a ton of emails from you guys about it. Hopefully these delicious seven-ingredient chocolate fudge cookies can more than make up for it!
Trending Right Now: Brownie Batter Bars – Even better than regular brownies
I first made the non keto version of this recipe with regular powdered sugar and LOVED them.
Then I sent the recipe to my mom, asking if she could test them out with erythritol.
She’s not on a keto diet and is usually very skeptical of anything low-carb (She loves carbs!!), so I wasn’t sure what to expect.
But a few hours later, I received a text with a bunch of chocolate cookie photos. It said:
“Possibly my newest favorite cookie of all times.”
So there’s that.

Instead of regular flour, these cookies are made with almond flour, so they’re great for someone on a low carb or gluten free diet.
If you want to make them keto, use powdered erythritol as the sweetener.
Or the recipe also works with regular powdered sugar or unrefined powdered sugar, which you can make by simply pulverizing coconut sugar or raw sugar in a blender until powdered.
So you have lots of options here… Just don’t skip the mini chocolate chips!

Keto Chocolate Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup finely ground almond flour
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- scant 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips or sugar free chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp powdered sugar or powdered erythritol
- 2 tbsp milk of choice
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or additional milk
- optional powdered sugar or erythritol to coat
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 F. Stir dry ingredients very well. Add wet to form a dough. (If you’re a visual person, feel free to watch the quick video above of me making the cookies.) If too wet, refrigerate until firm enough to roll into balls with your hands or a cookie scoop. Bake on a greased or parchment-lined tray for 11 minutes. If you want flatter cookies, press down with a fork or spoon. Let cool before handling. If desired, roll in additional powdered sugar or erythritol. Note: Don’t omit or cut back on the amount of chocolate chips or the cookies will not be as fudgy and delicious!View Nutrition Facts

I made the recipe this morning! While I haven’t sampled the cookies yet, they smell amazing. If the final product resembles your keto mug cake, I’ll be quite content with the results. I used 3 tbsp coconut milk (plus a bit of water), Lily’s chocolate chips, Dutch process cocoa, and homemade almond flour. Sorry that my cookies aren’t as attractive as yours!
Hopefully the image will upload this time?
A big fan of your keto recipes. I’m so eager to try this, but I don’t have sugar free chocolate chips available here. Can I just substitute chopped keto chocolates for the chips? Or should I make any changes in the quantity? Thanks ❤️
Chopped keto chocolates sound delicious. Be sure to report back if you try it!
Thank you so much for making them! Actually they look delicious 🙂

Can these be made with regular flour instead of almond?
Hi! We’ve only tried this one with almond flour, but she does have a regular-flour version in her cookbook. Or if you don’t have the book, it’s similar to this recipe (just omit the peanut butter and roll them in powdered sugar before baking): https://lett-trim.today/2017/12/18/chocolate-peanut-butter-cookies/%3C/a%3E%3Cbr /> Jason (media relations)
Thanks!
Two days ago I thought about making dark chocolate raspberry thumbprint cookies, did a cursory search for a base recipe, found nothing, but it didn’t matter because I didn’t have the time. When I saw this recipe in my box this morning, and actually now have the time, I got right to it.
I adapted the recipe a bit (subbed out 24 gr. almond flour for oat flour; subbed 18 gr. coconut sugar and 1/8 t. stevia for 10X, used 2 1/2 T. almond milk plus 1/2 T. veg oil; subbed 1 1/2 oz. chopped 72% fair trade dark chocolate for the chips) and ended up with exactly what I had in mind when I first envisioned the thumbprint.
As always, thanks CCK, for your excellent recipes.
That sounds even better than my version!
Would rice flour work?
Sorry I haven’t tried it!
These are amazing!
YUM!!
I used 5 tbsp of powdered (in magic bullet) allulose instead of erythritol (allulose is not as sweet), and I used 2 tbsp of cream and 1 tbsp of melted butter instead of milk / coconut oil and Lily’s chips. They came out like the most delicious soft brownie cookies ever! Not as planned, but delish! ?
These look so good! I know what I’m making when the kids go to bed for the night1
Amazing! Super chocolatey. I only had 3/4 cup of almond flour, so I topped up with coconut flour and reg gf all purpose. My dough was a bit dry because of my substitution, so I added 4 or 5 tablespoons of coconut milk instead of two. So, so good. Like Katie’s mom, these might be my new favorite cookie.
❤?
Made these for my step-mom who eats Keto, and I modified them to be Mexican Chocolate by adding cinnamon and cayenne. Also finished them with coarse sea salt as they were cooling. Because of the added dry ingredients it was a little drier than I would have liked, but the flavor was still great!
I am definitely trying your idea! Especially the sea salt part.
I did a batch like that also but added the sea salt into the batter. I also added more almond milk and coconut oil to make sure they weren’t dry. My family loved them!!
I have an almond allergy, and I am diabetic; therefore, I cannot use almond flour. What other type(s) of flour would work in this recipe?
Thanks!
Pecan flour works! https://amzn.to/2SWzwRn
