Sugar Free Low Carb Valentines Day Cookies
Sugar Free Low Carb Valentines Day Cookies, a tasty sugar free cookie idea that is low carb and keto diet friendly.
Servings: 28
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups Carbquik low carb baking mix
- 3 tbsp Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 1 ¼ cup Butter - softened to room temperature
- ½ cup Stevia Blend -see post for details
- 1 Egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- Red Food Coloring - 2 to 4 drops or as needed
- 1 cup Sugar Free White Chocolate Chips - plus additional for decorating with
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 and prep rimmed baking sheets or cookie sheets for nonstick. I use parchment paper for a recipe such as this one.
- In a medium mixing bowl, use a whisk or a fork to mix together the Carbquick baking mix with the unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Next, in a large mixing bowl beat together the butter with the sugar alternative until creamy. Then add the egg and the vanilla extract and mix.
- For the next step, we will add the dry ingredients from the first bowl to the mixing bowl. Do this by adding half of the dry ingredients at a time, stirring between additions. Then add the food coloring to the bowl and mix until blended. Then fold in the sugar free white chocolate chips.
- Roll out the cookie dough and cut into shapes. Place the cookies 1 ½ to 2" apart on the prepared sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges of the cookies begin to brown. Press the remaining white chocolate chips into the cookies and transfer the cookies to a cookie rack to cool before serving.
Recipe Notes
I mentioned that this recipe has been formulated using the low carb baking mix Carbquik. Carbquick already has other ingredients such as a leavener. If you use another low carb baking mix, please check the ingredients that are in that baking mix.
Also mentioned, this recipe has been formulated using Pyure Stevia Blend which has 2:1 ratio with sugar.
If you decide to substitute another sugar alternative, use one that also measures 2:1 with sugar. That is, one cup of the sugar alternative as measured is equivalent to two cups of sugar.
