Keto Cookie Dough

There is something magical about cookie dough, don’t you think? It always reminds me of childhood, making cookies with my mom in the kitchen. Sneaking a bite of cookie dough is such a treat and, especially in adulthood, something we think of as an occasional indulgence, not a frequent occurrence.

What if I told you that you could eat cookie dough EVERY day? Really! 🙂 On keto, you need to have a higher fat intake, so eating “fat bombs” (high-fat, often sweet, treats) is 100% allowed… and encouraged! You can make all sorts of fat bombs, but I would argue that a fat bomb that tastes like chocolate chip cookie dough might be one of the best of our many Keto Desserts.

Why You’ll Love This Keto Cookie Dough Recipe

  • This is an easy no-bake recipe. Combine your ingredients and you’re good to go!
  • Each fat bomb contains 6g fat and only 0.3g net carbs! With macros like those, feel free to eat two or three at a time.

    This edible chocolate chip cookie dough is OMG-to-die-for-delish! I didn’t even scoop it into little balls, as was suggested. I just put it into a Tupperware bowl and keep it in the back of the fridge! It DEFINITELY fulfills the cravings!!! Thank you! ❤️🍪

    • Hi Brigid, Thank you so much for the kind review! I’m thrilled that you love it! 😊 Great idea to put it in Tupperware in the fridge – I’ll have to do that for my next batch!

  • Just out of curiosity, if these are not being baked what is the purpose of adding the the leavening agent of baking soda?

  • Quick question in the math. I noticed the confection sugar is 2/3 cup. But it’s 3 carbs per tsp. So that would equal total 96 net carbs for that much sugar. which would be 3.84 per keto ball. Is there a way to cut that down or out of this recipe completely?

    These were so fun to make with my daughter. Recently, we decided to try and eat healthier desserts and this was our first one. So yummy!

    I made these for myself and the whole family ended up eating them! I’ve made this three times already. What a great treat to make during the summer.

    Keto Cookie Dough Fat Bombs are great. I love how easy it is to make them and everybody in the family loves them. I am slowly getting cookies together in preparation for Christmas. My daughters and I will make several batches of these fat bombs on Black Friday and freeze them for the Christmas holidays. It is a fun recipe to make with kids.

    These Keto Cookie Dough fat bombs are the best! I need a Keto motivator to pop in my mouth while the kids are eating their snacks after school and these cookie dough fat bombs work like a charm. Eating one or two of these keep me satisfied without breaking Keto.

  • I was wondering if you can use coconut flour instead of almond flour? if yes, do you know if it would be the same amount?

    • Hi Rachel! Coconut flour is typically substituted for almond flour at a 1:4 ratio (because coconut flour is a lot denser). But with this recipe, you can try using 1/4 cup coconut flour (1:2 ratio). You’ll lose some of the volume since you’re using half the flour, but it should work. If it’s a bit too dry, try adding water 1 tsp at a time until you get a dough you can work with. Enjoy! 🙂

    We do love these cookie dough treats but the serious professional keto experts suggest not to eat these every day but only once or at the very most twice a week. These are used when you break down and need a small treat. It’s also mentioned that if you understand the Randle Cycle Theory 🙁 In 1963, Lancet published a paper by Randle et al. that proposed a “glucose-fatty acid cycle” to describe fuel flux between and fuel selection by tissues. The original biochemical mechanism explained the inhibition of glucose oxidation by fatty acids. Since then, the principle has been confirmed by many investigators. ) you really don’t want to add carbs and it’s also recommended NOT to use “NET CARBS” but should be following : Total Carbs.

    The texture is that of cookie dough while still being smooth and creamy!! I used cacao nibs in place of chocolate chips and it was delicious!! Satisfying sweet treat that I will be keeping in my freezer
