Making low carb chocolate cookies requires some alternative ingredients. As I'm sure you know, ingredients like wheat flour, sugar, and sweetened chocolate chips aren't keto friendly ingredients. And those are the most common things you'll find in "normal" cookies. So, instead of using sugar - which is loaded with carbs - you'll want to use Swerve.
The coconut pecan frosting for the sugar free German chocolate cake is made on the stove top. Almond milk, sweetener, egg yolk, and butter are heated over medium heat and then xanthan gum is sprinkled in as a thickener. Once thicken, the mixture is removed from the heat and vanilla extract, unsweetened dried coconut, and pecans are stirred in.
Make the chocolate chip keto cookie dough. Beat in eggs, vanilla, and blackstrap molasses, then almond flour, just a bit at a time, and finally xanthan gum. TIP: There is a right way to add the almond flour and xanthan gum. Add the almond flour gradually, 1/2 cup at a time.
While a big slice of German chocolate cake may appeal to many, baking one from scratch may not. That’s where these cookies come in. They satisfy the craving for deep, dark pools of warm chocolate, sweet pecans and fragrant coconut with only a fraction of the work.
