These keto double chocolate cookies are chewy, soft, and are only 3g of net carbs per cookie! We elevate the flavor of these cookies by combining rosemary and salt. Making these the perfect holiday treat! Of course, if you’re not in the mood for the rosemary flavour, you can skip this step and enjoy a classic double chocolate cookie.
Rosemary
To release the fragrance of the rosemary, rub the sweetener and finely chopped rosemary together in a small bowl. This will help to infuse the rosemary flavor with the sweetener.
Chocolate
To make these double chocolate cookies we use unsweetened cocoa powder and 70% (or higher) dark chocolate. You’ll want your dark chocolate to have the least amount of sugar, to keep the carb content low. Cocoa powder is great for a keto diet because it’s high in essential minerals like magnesium.
Baking Method
As always, the baking time will vary depending on your oven. We cook ours 10-12 minutes at 350 F. The secret for chewy cookies is to remove them from the oven when the still look soft and slightly underbaked. Let them set for 10-15 minutes on the baking tray and then transfer them to a cooling rack.
Flour
We use a combination of almond flour, coconut flavor and a good amount of unsweetened cacao powder. We find that this combination creates the best texture that isn’t too heavy from using only almond flour. The combination makes these cookies incredible soft and delicious!
