How to Make Easy Low Carb Cookie Casserole Bars
This is just a quick overview of how to make this low carb cookie casserole. For the recipe in detail, scroll to the recipe card at the end of the post.
Mix the butter, cream cheese, Swerve Confectioners, and Swerve Brown.
TIP: When adding the Swerve Brown, sprinkle it on top of the other ingredients to make sure it evenly distributes when mixing.
Mix the eggs in, one at a time.
Then mix in the whipping cream and vanilla extract, followed by the dry ingredients. (The dry ingredients should be combined separately in another bowl first, as per the instructions.)
Then fold in the chocolate chips and add the mixture to a casserole dish that has been lightly sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
TIP: I used a 7×11″ casserole dish.
Place casserole dish in the oven and bake for 14-20 minutes (highly dependent on your oven), until the edges begin to lightly brown.
TIP: Do NOT overbake! The middle of the casserole will still be relatively soft/wet, but an inserted toothpick should come out mostly clean. The casserole will firm up as it cools.
Let the casserole cool off before cutting into pieces.
TIP: For the best results when cutting the casserole, place it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow it to firm up.
Your keto cookie bars will look like the absolute heaven below:

Is it possible to use almond flour?
Hi Cheryl! Yes, but you will need to make some modifications that I haven’t personally tested yet. But from experience, to use almond flour instead of coconut flour, you will use 1 cup of almond flour for every 1/4 cup coconut flour (in the case of this recipe, that would be 2 cups almond flour). Additionally, you’ll reduce the eggs down to 1 egg. I can test this version in a week or two and get back to you if you want to hold off.
I used almond flour and it turned out amazing! I did 2 cups of almond flour and instead of 2 eggs I did 1 whole egg and one egg yolk. Thank you so much for the delicious recipe 😁
Thank you so much, Nichole! I meant to test the almond flour version but it slipped my mind in light of everything that has been going on. I’m going to add your modifications to the post (with credit) in case anyone else wants to make it that way. 🙂
Hi Jessica! I was wondering could I sub all cream cheese an no butter? Would that work?
Hi Indra! I really apologize for the late response. I wouldn’t recommend that swap because it would dramatically alter the texture.
This is one very good recipe!! You honestly cannot tell that this is low carb. IT tastes nice and moist and like a full flavored sweet treat!! I have made two batched this afternoon!
Thank you so much for the kind review, Mary! 🙂 I’m thrilled that you’re enjoying the recipe!
Could I use monk fruit brown sugar for an even swap for Swerve brown sugar?
Hi Deanne! Yes, that will work great. Enjoy!
This is my boys favorite Keto cookie bar. Thanks for posting.
I am so happy to hear that! Thanks, Denise! 🙂
I don’t usually comment on recipes, but mercy I had to with this recipe! This is THE best keto dessert recipe I’ve tried. I’ve made it three times and even my kids love it. Thank you so much for this!
Hi Sara, I am honored that you chose to comment on my recipe! 🙂 Thank you so much for the review. I’m thrilled that you and your kids are enjoying it!
Came out perfect. Only had baking powder not soda and it worked! Ha!
What do we think about this being a family bomb??
Hi Cortney, I am so happy you and your family enjoyed it. Thank you for the review! 🙂
Wow! I’ve never reviewed a recipe & rarely comment on FB but, again, Wow! These are fantastic! I made a batch of each ( coconut flour & almond flour) & had my family do a taste comparison. They all preferred the coconut version but still thought the almond were great too.
Have a question, I have a friend who is allergic to milk protein – would substituting almond milk for the heavy cream work for this recipe?
Hi Anne, Thank you so much for this comment – it put a big smile on my face. I’m honored to be your very first recipe review! 🙂
Yes, substituting almond milk for the heavy cream is totally fine. I hope your friend enjoys the recipe too!
What is the best way to store these? Container on the counter or in the fridge?
Hi Elizabeth! I recommend storing them in the fridge.
Hi! Could I use monk fruit in place of swerve confectioner and swerve brown?
Hi Cece, Yes! As long as the monk fruit you use measures cup-for-cup to sugar (most brands, like Lakanto, do), then you can do a 1:1 replacement.
Has anyone tried this with an egg substitute?
Hi Molly! What kind of egg substitute do you want to use?
Can I use a 9 X 9 pan for this recipe?
Hi Z, You sure can! I recommend watching it in the oven a little more closely because it may change the cook time slightly.
I just took them out of the oven. Did a double patch. They look and smell great. Can’t wait to try.
A double batch is a great idea! Hope you enjoy, Georgia! 🙂
Can u substitute the cream cheese for somthing else ? Non dairy
Hi Tabitha! You can probably use Kite Hill’s almond milk cream cheese alternative if you can find it in your area. Here is a store finder: https://www.kite-hill.com/where-to-buy/
I haven’t tested this recipe with it though, so I can’t vouch for the final result. But, it’s only 4 tbsp so it shouldn’t alter the end result much (if at all).
I used Kite Hill cream cheese in the same amounts they turned out great. Love this cookie bar recipe.
Yay! Thanks for letting me know, Tracey! 🙂
This recipe tasted just like regular chocolate chip cookies. Just amazing! My husband really loves it too. What a wonderful keto cookie treat.
Hi!
Do you salted or unsalted butter?
Hi Tori! You can use either, but I personally use salted – I feel like it adds just a touch more to the flavor. Enjoy! 🙂
Delicious! I’ve been eating low carb for about 2 years and I cook a lot. These are the best bars I’ve had yet. I made them exactly as directed using Lakanto powdered and brown sweetener. Thank you for the great recipe.
Hi Lori, Thank you so much for the review! I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed them. 🙂
I’ve made lots of keto desserts and this recipe is amazing! I used mini SF Reece’s peanut butter cups instead of chocolate chips.
Thank you so much, Heather! I’m thrilled that you enjoyed it. GREAT idea to use peanut butter cups – I’ll have to try that!
I’ve made lots of keto desserts and this recipe is amazing! I used mini SF Reece’s peanut butter cups instead of chocolate chips.
This didn’t look super appetizing as I was making it, but oh man, it is delicious. They taste amazing cold. It’s nice to have something out of coconut flour, I get kind of tired of almond flour sometimes. The only thing I did differently was sub pyure for the confectioner’s swerve, I like the way it bakes better. Thank you!
Hi Alex, Yes! Eating the bars cold is my favorite way to eat them. 🙂 I’m so glad you enjoyed them! Thank you for the review.
Can I sub monk fruit sweetener for the swerve confection and monk fruit golden for the swerve golden?
Hi Maya, I’m so sorry for the delayed response! I missed your comment. Yes, you can definitely make those substitutions. Enjoy!
I’m just curious about how you got your nutrition information? I put the recipe through MyFitnessPal, and it comes out to be 5 net carbs instead of 2.
Hi Lia! I use a recipe card plugin that sources data from the USDA nutrition database, supplemented with a few manual values if the food isn’t in the USDA database (e.g., ChocZero chocolate chips). The nutrition values are accurate to the best of my ability, but sometimes they can differ slightly from other calculated values due to the data source, rounding, etc.
Question….what do you think about baking your recipe in my pampered chef brownie pan? It is already squared out (so no cutting later). I am headed to the kitchen I
Shortly to bake for a girls from work cabin weekend in the mountains and there will be so much bad stuff there…I have to counter with a couple amazing keto treats. Making a keto brownie too, so wondered about using the same type pan. No biggie if not….just a thought.
Hi Joyce! I haven’t used that pan before, but I think it would work great. Just keep an eye on the oven time since the smaller pieces will cook faster. Enjoy your cabin weekend and keto cookies! 🙂
By far my go to recipe for low carb cookie bars! Turns out great every time.
Thank you so much, Barb! I really appreciate the review. 🙂
These are amazing!!!thank you! I haven’t even tried it cold yet But I’m sure they are awesome !I used lakanto monk fruit , and lily sf choc chips ! ♥️
Hi GM, Thank you so much for the review! I’m so happy you liked them! 🙂 I *love* them cold – I hope you do too!
Convenient and delicious!
Hi, can we skip the brown sugar, as i live in lebanon and its not easy to find keto products . Thx i will try it as soon as possible
Hi Christiane! Yes, you can skip the brown sugar and instead substitute it with the keto sugar you use. Enjoy! 🙂
Could I use Splenda white and brown sugar instead of the swerve in this recipe?
It looks a
Amazing!!!!!
I do have one question. About how big did you cut your bars? Did you use anything to measure the bars evenly? I always run into that problem when doing desserts like this.
Thank you,
Christine
Hi Christine, thank you so much! I apologize for the late reply. I use a measuring tape 🙂 I also struggle to measure evenly, so a measuring tape is always helpful!
This was absolutely fantastic. I used only almond flour (2 cups) and only 1 egg. It was divine. I let it cool completely for a few hours and then warmed up a few pieces in a bowl with a few walnuts and keto ice cream. heaven! thanks so much.
Thank you so much for the 5-star review, Melody! I’m so happy to hear you liked it. Serving it warmed up with walnuts and keto ice cream sounds amazing!
