What this recipe is for

This simple keto cookie recipe blends two flours with a touch of erythritol for sweetness. It’s quick to mix, hands-on in under 15 minutes, and bakes into a crisp-edged, chewy center.

How to make it

Key steps: cream butter, whisk dry ingredients, mix with egg yolk and vanilla, fold in chopped chocolate, shape into cookies, bake until edges set. Cooling lets them finish firming up.

Tips for best results

Tips: Measure flours accurately, don’t overmix, and space cookies evenly. If dough spreads too much, chill 15 minutes before baking.
