Mini Keto Chocolate Chip Cookie Cakes

After celebrating four years of owning a keto bakery, I came up with a new Lala Cake that surprises me. I’m not sure how I missed making a soft chocolate chip pecan cookie cake that is now a top seller. While it has the flavor of a cookie, you’ll can eat it with a fork.

These are perfect for kids lunch, kids parties, barbecues, and dessert tables.

The ingredients are all low-carb and keto friendly, including my favorite keto chocolate chip from Choc Zero. You could use any chocolate chips you like but this is my favorite brand.

I like to drizzle chocolate ganache on the keto cookie cakes, but you could also use sugar free butter cream as another option. I have recipes for two keto buttercreams that would be good and for a chocolate Ganache. You would only need small amounts of each.

Tips for Cookie Cake

Weigh cookie cakes to about 80 -82 grams. Roll in ball and then flatten out with your hands. Leave a little bit of space around the raw cookie dough.

Bake at 360 degrees for about 15 minutes. Ovens vary. You can bake until just golden or even a little less. I’ve baked them dark golden and very light and they are good either way. The internal temperature should be around 190 F. But be sure to cool completely.

Use either paper tart liners or silicone tart cups. I use these paper tart liners for all my small cakes in the bakery. They are perfect for mini cakes. They hold the same amount of batter as a cupcake but are much easier to bake and eat. Use a drizzle spoon for ganache.

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups almond flour 140 grams
4 tablespoons coconut flour 28 grams
2 teaspoon gelatin powder optional
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon xanthan gum

Kitchen Tools

Instructions

Mix all dry ingredients except sweeteners. Set aside
Cream butter with Swerve granulated (or erythritol of your choice)
Add eggs one at a time.
Add vanilla.
Add dry ingredients.
Add chocolate chips and pecans.
This will make 12 – 14 mini cookie cakes, when made in 4 inch tart cups.

Make Cookie Cakes

Preheat oven at 360 degrees F. bake.
The easiest way to place cookie batter in tart liners is to roll each into a ball and then flatten out, leaving a little bit of room for them to expand. I weigh each (around 80 grams). This way they bake evenly.
Bake for 15 minutes or until slightly golden.
Cool completely before decorating with buttercream.

Ganache

You won't need the full recipe, because you will just be drizzling.

Freezing

Cookie Cakes freeze well. Wrap in plastic wrap. Take out about an hour in advance.

Notes

If you want to sub black strap molasses, sub 1/4 of the granulated erythritol with Swerve brown sugar erythritol. Or you could sub with 2 tablespoons of sugar free maple syrup.

There are several keto buttercreams on the site.
