how to make Keto Brownie Cookies Recipe

Cookies:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix 1 cup sunbutter or almond butter, 3/4 cup Swerve Brown, and 2 large eggs until smooth.
  3. Add 1 tsp vanilla extract and stir.
  4. Stir in 1/3 cup collagen protein powder, 1/4 cup cocoa powder, 1 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 tsp salt. Mix until you have a thick batter.
  5. Fold in 3 ounces dark chocolate chips (sugar-free).
  6. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the sheet about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with the back of a spoon.
  7. Bake 9–11 minutes, until edges set but centers stay soft. Let cool on the sheet 5 minutes, then move to a wire rack.

Glaze:

  1. In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 tbsp heavy whipping cream, 1/2 tbsp butter, and a few extra sugar-free chocolate chips if you want more chocolate.
  2. Heat 15–20 seconds, then stir until smooth. If needed, heat in 10-second bursts.
  3. Drizzle glaze over cooled cookies. Add sugar-free sprinkles if you like.
  4. Let glaze set a few minutes before serving.

tips to make Keto Brownie Cookies Recipe

  • Use room temperature eggs for better mixing.
  • Do not overbake to keep cookies chewy.
  • If dough is too wet, add a bit more collagen powder or a tablespoon of almond flour.
  • Flatten dough balls slightly so they bake evenly.
  • Let cookies cool a bit before glazing so the topping does not run.

variation (if any)

  • Nut-free: use sunbutter instead of almond butter.
  • More chocolate: add an extra ounce of sugar-free chips.
  • Coconut option: replace collagen with 1/3 cup fine coconut flour if you want a different texture (may need a splash more egg).
  • Add a pinch of espresso powder to boost the chocolate flavor.

FAQs

Q: Can I use regular brown sugar instead of Swerve Brown?
A: You can, but it will raise the carbs and sugar. Use Swerve for keto.

Q: Can I skip the collagen protein powder?
A: You can, but the texture will change. You may need a little almond flour to keep the dough firm.

Q: How do I make the cookies crispier?
A: Bake 1–2 minutes longer and flatten the dough more before baking.

Q: Can I bake larger cookies?
A: Yes. Increase bake time by a few minutes and watch them so they do not overbake.

Q: Are these safe for people with nut allergies?
A: Use sunbutter to avoid tree nuts, but check labels for cross-contamination.
