If you want to add something sinfully delicious to your weekday menu, then dark chocolate-dipped cookies are a must-try. Plain dark chocolate cookies are a stand-alone dessert, but slather them in the creamy chocolate topping, and you have a treat that is beyond decadent. They’re loaded with tons of chocolate flavor that will keep you satisfied right down to the very last crumb.
Sugar Free Cookie Recipe!
Almond flour and monk fruit sweetener are what make this low carb dessert possible. Almond flour is the perfect substitute for traditional flour, and it gives the cookie the same texture that you’re used to without any of the added carbs. Monk fruit keeps these cookies low carb and keto-friendly so anybody on a keto, gluten-free, or sugar-free diet can indulge in this fantastic snack.
As far as a cookie recipe goes, the baking method is pretty similar to traditional cookies. Mix together all the ingredients, bake to perfection, and dip the cookies into the melted dark chocolate. It’s really that simple! Even a novice cook can pull this one off.
