Base
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons Lakanto brown keto sweetener
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Mix-ins
- 1/2 cup Lily’s sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup Lily’s sugar-free white chocolate chips
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 cup chopped roasted pecans
- Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place a silicone muffin tray onto a baking sheet and have it ready to use for the cookie mixture.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, blend the melted coconut oil, melted butter, and eggs together using a hand mixer on medium speed. This ensures a smooth and evenly mixed base.
- Add Sweetener and Salt: Incorporate the Lakanto brown keto sweetener and salt into the wet mixture. Continue mixing until the sweetener is fully dissolved and the ingredients are well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Gently stir in the unsweetened coconut flakes, sugar-free chocolate chips (both regular and white), and chopped roasted pecans with a spoon or spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Fill Muffin Tray: Drop equal portions of the cookie mixture into each cup of the silicone muffin tray. Lightly press down the mixture with your fingertips or the back of a spoon to flatten the tops for even baking.
- Bake Cookies: Place the muffin tray in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookie tops turn slightly golden, indicating they are cooked through.
- Cool: Remove the tray from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the countertop for at least 20 minutes, which helps them firm up and prevents breaking when removed.
- Serve: Carefully pop each cookie out from the silicone mold and place them on a plate lined with paper towels. Serve and enjoy these low carb chocolate treats!
Notes
- Make sure to use sugar-free chocolate chips such as Lily’s to keep the treats keto-friendly and low carb.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely to help them set and avoid crumbling when removing from the silicone mold.
- You can store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
- For extra flavor, you can toast the coconut flakes lightly before mixing them in.
- If you prefer a dairy-free version, substitute butter with more coconut oil or a plant-based butter alternative.
