Keto Jello pudding cookies


These cookies are a life saver when you need a dessert! I promise you won't believe these are keto; they have the chew and taste of your usual non-keto cookie, with about 1 net carb per cookie!

Servings: 20 cookies

Ingredients
6 oz cream cheese
4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup Swerve sugar substitute (or sweetener of choice)
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond extract
1 pkg sugar‐free Jello pudding, any flavor (4-serving size) I used butterscotch flavor
1/8 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 c almond flour

Optional:
1/2 cup 85% or darker chocolate or Lily's chocolate chips
1/3 cup pecans, chopped

Directions
Soften cream cheese and butter. Beat egg together with sweetener and extracts. Mix in salt and Jello pudding packet until combined.
Whisk baking powder into the almond flour. Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture. Blend well using a stirring spoon to form a slightly sticky dough.
Stir in any optional add-ons to the dough.
Wrap dough in plastic wrap and place in the fridge until firm, about 1 hour.


Pinch off dough and roll into one inch balls and place on a greased baking sheet, leaving an inch between the cookies. 
Use your thumb or the bottom of a glass sprayed with Pam to flatten the cookies. These do not spread very much while baking.

Of course, thinner cookies are crispier, bake more quickly, and burn easily. Watch those last few minutes depending on how thick you leave your dough!
Bake 325°F for 15-20 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool 10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. Allow cookies to cool completely before serving to avoid crumbling.
Optional: dust with additional Swerve confectioners sugar.
Enjoy!

Olive oil cake with chocolate ganache

The olive oil in this cake makes it super moist, which is hard to achieve when working with coconut flour. Infused olive oils work wonderful in this cake; I have a blood orange infused olive oil that I will substitute into the recipe sometimes. The chocolate ganache is quick and easy, but tastes sublime! Enjoy! 1 cup olive oil 3/4 cup Coconut flour 3/4 cup erythritol 6 large eggs 2 tsp Baking powder 1 1/4 tsp Baking Soda 2 tsp vanilla extract 1/4 tsp Pink Salt INSTRUCTIONS Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside. Beat eggs to double the  original volume in another bowl. Add olive oil, and vanilla extract to eggs and combine. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet as you combine. Pour into a greased pan (I used a 9 inch springform pan). Bake at 350 for 30 minutes (until edges will have browned and toothpick comes out clean). Allow to cool completely, then cover in chocolate ganache.  Ganache: 1/2 cup heavy whipping cre...
