I'm pretty sure these will become your all time favorite low carb cookie. Think low carb brownie meets perfect keto cookie. It's a marriage made in chocolate heaven. Keto Flourless Chewy Double Chocolate Chip Cookies
The best low carb Chocolate Chip Cookies
My favorite thing about flourless low carb cookies is that it takes away the grittiness found in most low carb baked goods. I have no doubt that these will be in heavy rotation. They have been getting rave reviews and people are calling them "the best keto cookie recipe" they have ever tried. That is high praise! Would you believe me if I told you that a variation of this dough also makes great keto chocolate muffins and keto brownies?
How to make these cookies dairy-free:
To make a dairy free version of these cookies, just swap the butter with butter flavored coconut oil. Yes, it tastes exactly like butter, and no one will know the difference.
Tips and tricks for these keto cookies:
- Using powdered sweetener instead of granular helps take away any grittiness.
- I like to pull these keto cookies out of the oven at the 10 minute mark and lightly press on them to flatten. This makes for a deliciously fudgy, brownie-like texture. So yum!!
- If you are making smaller cookies and making more than 18, I would decrease the cooking time to 8 to 10 minutes.

Peace Love and Low Carb says
Thanks so much for the kind words. I did take mine out at about the 10 minute mark (I like them really soft baked) and then I lightly pressed them down to make them nice and fudgy.
Robin says
Oooh!! I will try that next time. I like fudgy as well.
J. Duncan says
Loved it, but can you make it without the butter?
My husband even loved these! He never likes anything healthy! I did notice it worked better with a really good almond butter. Super creamy..
Jeannie says
Wow! This cookie looks yummy delicious. However, what can I replace with butter and peanut butter? I have a son who is nut allergic.
Jeannie says
Ooop! I meant almond butter and peanut powder.
Cathy Styles says
Do you know about Sunbutter? It seems to sub for nut butters very well.
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Almond butter is the main ingredient. Not really sure what you could substitute to alleviate the nut allergy concern. Maybe sunflower seed butter? But I have not personally tried it and can't speak to how it might work out
Amanda grimes says
I tried SunButter with this recipe and it was a flop they turned out with a green tint and did not have a good texture. I much prefer the almond butter that the original recipe calls for! So fudge like and amazing!
Marnie says
Can't wait to make these, they look yummy! Thank you for providing us with such delicious recipes. Your site is always the first one I tell people about when they start low carb/keto because the recipes don't use all these crazy ingredients and they are awesomely delicious. Sorry that some people won't take responsibility for their own health journey and put the effort in to figure out the nutrition info on their own!!!
Katie says
These were delicious! Thank you so much-it's truly a treat. If you want a chewier cookie, bake them on parchment paper. The silpat cookies were more cakey (yes, I'm that weirdo who put a batch on each to see the difference). I'm not a huge sweets person anymore, but these really hit the spot. And making 24 allows me a "little" treat every now and again. Froze the baked cookies to prevent a disaster ;-)...
For those who want to know the macros, this is what I got when I entered the recipe into LoseIt: (based on 24 cookies) 49 cal; 3.8g F; 5.6g total C; 2g P. LoseIt doesn't eliminate the carb grams from Swerve, so if you don't count them, you can eliminate 3.5g C from each cookie. YMMV depending on the type of PB powder you use, etc.
Carlie says
I made these on parchment and basically got whoopie pies. 🙁 Still tasty though! 😀
TangibleTania says
Same! Totally jot disappointed!! I can eat whoopie pies again!!! YAAAAAASSSSS!!!!
Abby Keuhn says
Thanks for the nutrition break down!
Ang says
I just put all the ingredients in my fitness pal 2 minutes 8 seconds I have macros not really difficult and now I have it based on he size and portions I'm making them in
Laurainks says
These cookies are by far the best keto-friendly cookie I have made thus far. I didn't find them chewy...more cakey but still the texture was very nice. I am wondering if using peanut butter instead of PB powder might give more peanut butter flavor? I don't notice it too much, but I did use dark cocoa and dark chocolate chips, so that might have something to do with it. Thanks for a really nice, and easy recipe without a lot of strange ingredients!
Amber Doud says
I just made these using half cup PB and half cup almond butter. Worked really well. I'd skip the melted butter if using the stir in PB.
Tina Scroggie says
Thank you for your comment on using real PB. I rarely use PB powder and I didn't want to buy it and I would just rather use real PB.
Gina says
Everyone keeps saying peanut butter isn’t keto I made these with pb powder so good
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Thanks so much for the kind words. I hope you enjoy them!! Have an awesome weekend.
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Thank you so much!! 🙂
Linda Sampsel says
I love your recipes and can't wait to try this one. Your pork egg roll in a bowl is a staple in our house and my daughter made it tonight and her 5 year old twins loved it! Thank you so much for all that you do to everyone those of us following the Keto WOE.
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Thanks so much!
Nikki says
Hey can I use swerve instead of Erythritol? I have the cheesecake in the oven and it took most of my bag lol. I can't just run to the store for it , where I live I have to order it ugh lol. Thank ????
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Yes, you can
Katja says
It almost seemed to good to be true. And for a dutch person it is because we cannot buy peanutbutter powder easily. Yes on the internet but then the cookies are not interesting costwise anymore. Can you substitute the pb powder?
Joanne says
Katja - The pb powder should work, since it is only a small amount.
Vic says
Joanne’s reply makes no sense
Jen says
Made these today without the P. Butter powder. I did not sub anything - just left it out. They were awesome, I love flourless desserts! Thank you for this recipe!
Cathy says
I'm about to do the same thing! Thanks for the reassurance ????
Emily says
I subbed vanilla protein powder in place of the PB powder. They were magnificent!
Peace Love and Low Carb says
So happy you enjoyed them!! Thanks for letting me know
Cori Richardelle says
I substituted 1 tablespoon of coconut flour. It worked well!
Oh, and I doubled the chocolate chips 🙂
Stacey says
Will substituting natural peanut butter for the almond butter still make these come out the same? I have a tree nut allergy. Can’t wait to try these!
Thanks!
Stacey
Kyndra Holley says
Hi Stacey, yes, that should work!
Debra L Smith says
So, I made these cookies for the second time today. The first time, I used almond butter, and they came out great. Today, I used peanut butter, and it was chunky, too. Everything else remained the same. I think I love them even more with the peanut butter!
D B says
They were better than expected. I left out the pb powder and doubled the coco powder they were sooo good like little cakes
Beckie says
Truly the BEST Keto cookie I've made. I substituted protein powder for the PB powder. Tastes amazing!
Melanie says
These were AMAZING!
