Keto Chocolate Snowball Cookies
Earlier this month we created a Low Carb/Keto version of the classic pecan snowball cookies. Now, we are stepping it up a notch and came up with these buttery chocolate snowball cookies for you to add to your baking list during the holidays!
If you’re on a keto or low carb diet, you’re going to love me for this chocolatey recipe… trust me. These holiday cookies are very quick and simple to make and best of all you honestly can’t even tell that it’s sugar free and low carb. My dad, who isn’t on the keto diet, has the biggest sweet tooth and he ate one after another and couldn’t tell the difference between these and a regular sugary cookie.
How To Make Keto Chocolate Snowball Cookies:
Allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container at room temperature.

Lakanto not only carries our favorite granulated sugar, but they also carry our favorite powdered sugar! Other brands will leave you with a bad cooling effect or aftertaste. This sweetener is keto-friendly being that it is a zero glycemic sugar replacement! Try it out for yourself. Our readers get 20% off at checkout using the code: BUTTERTOGETHER

About these numbers: We are home cooks, not certified nutritionists. Nutrition is shared as a courtesy and calculated with free online nutrition calculators — we compare a few to get as close as we can — so please treat it as a helpful estimate rather than a guarantee. The brands you buy, any swaps you make, and how generously you portion the recipe will all move these numbers.
