Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies
When you need a treat, reach for these keto chocolate chip cookies. You’ll taste the yummy combination of peanut butter and chocolate, but you won’t ruin your diet plan.
Another bonus benefit is that they are sweetened with zero calorie stevia instead of processed sugar.
However, the best thing about these cookies is that they are delicious.
The recipe is for big cookies with a whopping 11 grams of protein, but you can make them smaller.
For many who live a keto lifestyle, giant protein packed cookies are perfect.
Another keto friendly ingredient is collagen, so the cookies may provide other health benefits, as well.
If this is your first attempt at making keto cookies, you can still get good results.
The ingredients are a little different than the typical sugar loaded peanut butter cookie, but the techniques are the same.
These cookies taste as good as they look, so you’ll want to enjoy one as a special treat.
Dairy may or may not fit with your daily keto plan, but almond milk is keto approved. I love the taste of it with a peanut butter chocolate chip cookie.
Enjoy!
