These cheesecake cupcakes are quick and simple, but also highly customizable. I chose sugar-free raspberry syrup for this particular batch, but you can substitute the syrup for any flavor you like (or if you like plain New York-style, just use the vanilla extract)! My goodness, these cupcakes are decadent and delicious. I rarely cook them because I know I'll just sit down after their done and eat the whole lot of them! Luckily, at 2g net carb a piece, I can sleep soundly. ;) Yields 12 ...

Fried Cookie Dough Balls
I've been trying to find a way to make fried cookie dough for a while, and with almond flour alone the texture just doesn't come through. The batter doesn't get thick enough...and coconut flour is something that I don't like to use. It falls apart and becomes very dry. Protein powder (casein to be exact) was the key! Optimum Nutrition is one of my favorite brands for both protein powder and casein powder. Not to mention they make great multivitamins, vitamins, and other supplements. There's ...

Macadamia & Coconut Keto Custard
I've been looking for some different ways to use the Homemade Macadamia Nut Butter that I made the other day. I've not had custard in a long time, but for some odd reason it popped into my head and I got a craving. I set out to make a recipe that can stand up to low carb, but still taste great. I went for a texture that custard should be when baked - some egginess, but a velvety soft texture. As you chew, the notes from the vanilla, egg, coconut milk, and then macadamia nut butter come ...

The New Year's coming around and I always love making spice cakes at this time a year. Winter is here and there's nothing better than a nice warm spice cake after a great meal.

Low Carb Macadamia Nut Brownies
I've been making so many sweets lately that I had to take a bit of a break and allow the leftovers to be eaten before making more. Being on a keto diet, it's hard for me to keep eating sweets, even if they are low carb, because I find my cravings start to come back after I eat them. Low and behold, everything is gone and I wanted to make something I haven't done in a while. I settled on brownies because I haven't really gotten around to making a cake, and I have only been making cookies ...
