Cookie Ingredients

CHOCOLATE Sugar-free chocolate chips are popular for baking and easy to find. Dark chocolate chips have a more intense flavor, but semi-sweet chips can be used as well.

SWEETENER Swerve is a sugar-free alternative free from calories and doesn’t raise insulin, so it’s an excellent ingredient for low-carb, no-sugar cooking.

BUTTER Real butter brings a rich, full flavor to baked goods and is one of the healthy fats seen in many keto diets.

NUTS Pecans give these cookies a crunchy, delicate flavor, but chopped walnuts or macadamia nuts make good substitutes as well.

How to Make Chocolate Coconut Cookies

This is the easy part!

  1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and scoop by heaping tablespoons on a prepared baking sheet.
  2. Bake (per the recipe below) until tops are lightly browned. Cool completely.

Recipe Tips!

  • For higher rising cookies, chill the cookie dough up to 30 minutes before baking. This will solidify the butter and make for a chewier cookie. Use a watermelon scoop or small ice cream scoop for uniformly sized cookies.
  • For extra crunchy nuts, lightly toast them in a dry sauté pan until they are barely fragrant. Let them cook and add to the recipe.
  • Keep cooled cookies in a zippered bag or air-tight container for up to a week at room temperature.
  • To freeze cookie dough for future snack attacks: roll the dough into a log and wrap it in plastic wrap. Label with the date on the outside and freeze for up to 6 weeks.

  1. Seems like a lot of carbs for 1 cookie altho these look like they might just be worth it! Is the nutrition calculated with the swerve included maybe?
