Keto Cream Cheese Chocolate Cookies

If you’re craving a decadent dessert that’s both Low-Carb and High-Protein, these Keto cream cheese chocolate cookies are the perfect treat. Combining the richness of cream cheese, the indulgence of chocolate, and the subtle kick of espresso, these cookies are a dream for anyone following a Keto lifestyle. They’re soft, chocolatey, and topped with a creamy chocolate icing that will satisfy your sweet tooth without spiking your Carbs.

How to make these cookies Dairy-Free

While this recipe relies on cream cheese and butter for its rich texture, it’s easy to adapt for a Dairy-Free diet. Swap the cream cheese with a plant-based alternative like almond or cashew cream cheese. Use Dairy-Free butter or coconut oil in place of traditional butter. These substitutions maintain the same soft texture and ensure the recipe remains Keto-friendly.

Can this recipe be made with other types of flour?

Coconut flour is a Keto staple, but you can experiment with almond flour for a slightly different texture. Since coconut flour absorbs more liquid, you’ll need to adjust the egg quantity if using almond flour. Start by replacing the coconut flour with 2 cups of almond flour and adding eggs gradually to achieve the right consistency. Either option keeps the cookies low-carb and high-protein while allowing you to tailor the recipe to your preference.

How to store and freeze these cookies for later

These cookies are perfect for meal-prepping your Keto treats. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days. For longer storage, freeze the cookies (iced or un-iced) in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. Simply thaw at room temperature or reheat for a few seconds in the microwave for a warm, chocolatey treat anytime.
