Keto Orange & Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Keto Orange & Chocolate Chunk Cookies

December 15, 2013 by 11 Comments

When I was a kid and it was the holidays, I was guaranteed to be eating a Terry's Chocolate Orange. The memories the smell of chocolate and orange together brings back is wonderful for me. The orange flavor comes through immediately, almost overpowering for a second - then the chocolate hits. The chocolate adds a fantastic hint of bitterness, which superbly melds together with the flavors of orange. With the sweetness of the dough finishing it off, it's an extremely balanced flavor profile - ...

Lemon & Rosemary Low Carb Shortbread

Lemon & Rosemary Low Carb Shortbread

December 14, 2013 by 10 Comments

Can I really call these shortbread cookies? Well yes. The consistency is pretty crumbly, similar to shortbread. The sweetness aspect, however, isn't much like them at all. Think tea-cakes when you take a bite into this crumbly goodness. The second you put these in your mouth, it's hit with a refreshing wave of lemon. Hints of salt might come through before the rosemary finally takes the first strike. When it does, the herbaceousness will fill your mouth for only a moment before the lemon ...

Best Basic Low Carb Chocolate

I'm sure this recipe is out there in cyberspace somewhere, but I never found it. I stumbled upon it by trial and error and am I ever happy I did! This is THE best chocolate I've had since I first started a keto way of life. The applications are endless and I look forward to all the wonderful things I can make with this stuff. I know it's a little high on the carb end (if you're not counting fiber), but for holidays, birthdays, or special occasions, it is perfect. Also, when using it in ...

White Chocolate Bark With A Twist

White Chocolate Bark With A Twist

December 10, 2013 by 3 Comments

I've never been a big fan of the flavor of coconut (I know, I know), so fat bombs have never held much appeal to me. Then I discovered that coconut butter (also called coconut cream) has less of that coconut taste. To make things even better, I discovered cacao butter. Cacao butter is the fat extracted from the cacao been. It smells like chocolate, but is an off white color. As soon as I started working with it, I realized this would be my ticket to making white chocolate. Because of the ...

I've been making a lot of sweets lately, and I am starting to get tired of them. Weird huh? I guess I have no sweet tooth anymore, I much prefer the savory side of things. I wanted to make something different, and stumbled on a recipe for some spicy cookies. Sounded good to me, as I know chocolate and spice can pair up really well together - let's just say these Mexican hot chocolate cookies turned out great. I was really pleased with them, despite my recent grudges with coconut flour. The ...

Creamy Delicious Keto Friendly Eggnog

Creamy Delicious Keto Friendly Eggnog

December 3, 2013 by 22 Comments

Growing up I never really liked eggnog. That slimy, thick consistency was never something that I wanted to like or could bring myself to like. This keto eggnog recipe, however, will be a hit - it's thick, creamy, delicious, and will knock your socks off! If you're new to keto and haven't had alcohol - be careful as this can make you drunk. I put a lot of alcohol in mine as we have a family that can drink often. Let me know how you and your family like this one, I'm sure it will be a ...

Low Carb Pumpkin Cheesecake Tarts

Low Carb Pumpkin Cheesecake Tarts

November 28, 2013 by 5 Comments

I was in a rush to get these done for Thanksgiving, because the ovens are going to be in full effect tomorrow and I'd have no time to make these delicious little guys. The dough was pretty crumbly, so I smashed them into the cupcake tin, and hoped for the best. I decided to par-cook them for a little bit first to try to give them a bit of sturdiness before I spooned in the mixture. I also chilled the dough for 30 minutes before putting it in the tins, because it was falling apart on me when I ...

Low Carb Chocolate Brownie Cupcakes, ‘Nuff Said

Low Carb Chocolate Brownie Cupcakes, ‘Nuff Said

November 26, 2013 by 14 Comments

I had just converted my mother to a ketogenic diet, and her birthday was coming up soon. I was scraping at the air trying to find something that was low carb, delicious, and would rifle her cravings away for any type of real cake. I remember a few years back, I had made soy bean brownies...right then and there I knew I had to make a cake from them. Luckily my local supermarket sells organic soy beans, so I headed over there and picked some up. I went online to search for some recipes, but low ...

I'm really excited about this pie! Pecan pie is my all time favorite and after lots of searching I thought I was going to have to miss out this Thanksgiving. I had specific ingredients in mind and wasn't sure if it would work. Thankfully, it all came together in the end. Please note: I used LC-Sweet Natural for this recipe. Please be sure to see notes at the bottom of this post for information about using other sweeteners. I really like this pie crust. I think it could easily pass for a ...
