Keto Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies

We started making these Chocolate Avocado Cookies years ago — they taste so rich and decadent that you almost feel like you’re splurging!

Even our daughters love them! (And they don’t like avocado!)

When we started eating keto, I asked my husband (the chef in the family) if he could make a keto version of my favorite healthy cookies.

With only one simple switch, our favorite chocolate cookies are now keto-friendly! And they taste just as fantastic!!

No joke…they literally melt in your mouth!

With treats like this, we don’t feel deprived at all! We’ve tried a lot of different keto cookie  recipes, but these might just be the best of them all!

How to Make Keto Chocolate Cookies

 

 The awesome thing about these cookies is that they are so easy to make!

All you do is blend everything (except chocolate chips) in a food processor. Stir the chocolate chips into the batter by hand.

Scoop balls of dough onto a prepared cookie sheet and bake for about 10 minutes at 350°F. Allow to cool completely.

What Kind of Chocolate Chips are Keto Friendly?

Chocolate chips are optional, but I love to add a handful for even more fudge-y flavor!

Make sure to look for chocolate chips that are sweetened with stevia or another low carb sweetener. We love Lily’s Dark Chocolate chips and use them in a lot of recipes, like these keto peanut butter chocolate chip cookies.

How to Store Your Low Carb Chocolate Cookies

These cookies keep best in the fridge — they can last for 2-3 days. Store them on a plate or inside a food storage container and cover with paper towel or parchment paper. Don’t seal with a lid, as these are very moist cookies and you don’t want them  to get soggy!

You can also freeze your cookies if you’d like them to last even longer — up to a month! Wrap cookies individually in parchment paper and place them inside a freezer bag. When you want to enjoy them, simply remove from freezer and allow to thaw to room temperature.

    Is Erythritol liquid or granules?

    So I was skeptical to say the least, and I’m not new to keto! I thought this would be such a great way to use up avocados that are getting soft…I followed the recipe with the following tweaks – 1) I used reg granulated Swerve as I do not have the brown sugar variety, 2) I added about 3/4 tsp of vanilla, and 3) I added about 1 tsp of espresso powder. I suggest really cranking up the food processor to make sure all the green bits are very well blended. When I took the lid off the processor the odor was less than appealing, and the batter tasted so-so. I went ahead and baked them, let them cool and put the cookie sheet in the freezer for about 30 min. I have to say wow and wow! The taste is very chocolaty and satisfying. I’m sure they will improve overnight as keto baked goods always seem to. Thanks for a great recipe!

    • I’ll have to try them with espresso powder – I bet that is fantastic! We keep our cookies in the fridge and they do taste even better the next day 😉

  5. I have a question, the recipe calls for two of them but the video only shows one cut into two pieces, which is it? 2 avocados (4pieces) or 1 (2 pieces)

    • Hi Shauna – If you’re using jumbo avocados like we did in the video then you can use one. If you’re using the smaller avocados, I’d stick with two. Hope this helps!

  6. Hii! Is it possible to use stevia instead of swerve?? Thanks muuch

    • The problem you might run into with most stevia products is that the volume is different. Swerve is a 1:1 sugar substitute, while a lot of stevia products you use much less. If there is a stevia designed for baking you could try that – just be sure to check the measurements. Hope this helps!

    This is one of my favourite recipes. I love these for a late night snack as the satisfy my cravings are are not too caloric. Love them!

    • Glad you love the cookies – thank you for letting me know! They are one of my favorites too and SO helpful for staying on track when a chocolate craving hits!

  8. I just made these and they are wonderful, very chocolaty! I added pecans and unsweetened coconut as we like “stuff” in our cookies and they are a new favorite!
