Homemade Low Carb Chocolate Chip Cookies
Honestly, these cookies taste exactly like my mom's homemade chocolate chip cookies. And just to be clear - while my mom's chocolate chip cookies were unbelievably delicious - they were loaded with carbs (and calories). Just like her's though, these low carb chocolate chip cookies are soft, chewy, perfectly sweetened, and filled with ooey gooey deliciousness.

I wonder how these would work with crushed pecans instead of chocolate chips. I must be the only person in the world who doesn't like chocolate.
The Diet Chef says
They definitely would! I hope you gave it a shot :D

Debra Seabaugh says
I haven't made these yet, but the recipe is what I've been searching for! I'm pre-diabetic, already eat well, but I'm a cookie fanatic and don't always count my carbs on my cookies. Thank you! I'm making these today.
Gina says
I've been searching for this. Really good!!! I did use keto flour instead of almond, and butter over coconut oil. Both reduced calories and carbs. Just had to add a little water cuz batter was dry. Excellent cookie. Thx for posting!!!
