How To Make Keto Cookie Dough Keto Fat Bombs
Don’t try turning this dough into actual keto chocolate chip cookies! This is made specifically to be eaten as raw cookie dough, as a fat bomb. If you bake this you will be very disappointed…
Ingredients
- Almond Flour – Almond flour is the base of this recipe. It’s our favorite low carb flour to use in dessert recipes because of the smooth texture it creates in comparison to coconut flour. We like to use finely ground blanched almond flour.
- Butter – For added smoothness and increased fat (we’re making keto fat bombs after all).
- Cream Cheese – This cuts through all the heavy ingredients and provides and element of freshness. You can even add a little sour cream to this recipe if you want it to have some tangy cheesecake notes.
- Sugar Free
Chocolate Chips – A must have for any low carb cookie dough recipe. We have been using Lily’s Sugar FreeChocolate Chips since we started our blog years ago and they are still our favorite option. - Erythritol – Our preferred substitute for sugar in keto friendly dessert recipes.
- Stevia – We use this in combination with erythritol to get our desserts to the right level of sweetness.
- Vanilla Extract – “The salt of desserts” as I like to call it. A splash of vanilla extract ties this whole recipe together.
Use Lots of Fat
This is important since we are making cookie dough fat bombs after all. In this recipe we are using a combination of butter and cream cheese. In most keto recipes you can substitute coconut oil in place of butter if you want to but I would encourage against that for these fat bombs. The butter is more stable at room temperature which results in a better consistency in this keto cookie dough recipe.
Keto Friendly Chocolate Chips
There are more than a few options of keto friendly
Use Stevia AND Erythritol
This combination is important for achieving a well-rounded sweetness, without a bitter aftertaste. This recipe doesn’t call for a ton of sweetener because the rest of the ingredients bring some subtle sweetness of their own.
Stevia is very similar to liquid monk fruit. If you prefer using monk fruit you can use it to replace stevia in this recipe.
Pro Tip: If you want to avoid the gritty texture of the granular erythritol you can opt for a powdered version (although I do not find it to be off-putting in this recipe).
Bring Ingredients to Room Temperature
Bringing ingredients to room temperature allows for them to mix completely without any clumping. That is extra important for no bake recipes because the cooking process is what eliminates most issues with clumpy dough.
Use a Cookie Scoop
Not the biggest tip, but don’t underestimate this crafty little tool. I always thought it was a waste of money to have a utensil specifically for scooping cookies, but it comes in handy quite a bit. For less than $15 it’s well worth the cost. We like taking the full keto cookie dough recipe and scooping it into little cookie dough bites using a cookie scoop.

Other Keto Cookie Recipes
You should look at this recipe as more of a fat bomb recipe that you can form into whatever shape you want or relive old memories by eating straight out of the fridge!

What is a Fat Bomb?
A fat bomb is a small, high fat snack. Typically fat bombs are sweet and are very low in net carbs. They come in handy for people that are just starting a keto diet and need a convenient way to add more fat to their diet. Replacing traditional desserts with fat bombs is a good option for most!
Fat bombs happen to be one of our favorite types of desserts because they taste great, and they also make it easy to add fat to meals. We love them so much we created an entire e-book dedicated to them. If you liked this recipe you would love The Fat Bomb Bible.
What are the best chocolate chips for keto?
In the past few years more and more keto friendly chocolate chip options have become available. Most of them are great options and going with whichever keto
The main component of edible cookie dough is the removal of eggs. Many people are concerned with eating raw eggs. Since this recipe is not going to be baked the eggs are not needed to hold the dough together.
This recipe is definitely best with almond flour, but if you prefer coconut flour or want to make this recipe nut-free then try this. Remove the almond flour and add in 1 tablespoon of coconut flour. Once that is mixed in, slowly add small amounts of coconut flour until the dough is able to be formed into balls.
You should need 2-3 tablespoons of coconut flour in place of the almond flour.
How to store these fat bombs
I’m a big fan of storing all of my fat bombs in the freezer. This will increase your shelf life big time. It also gives you the option of eating them cold (which is what I like to do), or setting them on the counter and allowing them to defrost before you eat them. At a minimum you will want to store these in the fridge. They will last 2-3 weeks.

I don’t want to wait to order Lily’s Chocolate chips, so if I roughly chop up walnuts; melt bakers chocolate with some butter, add some stevia to taste and then mix in the walnuts; spread on wax paper, let cool in the fridge till firm, and chop or break up into small pieces. That might work? what do you think?
PS. Was watching AD Keto. He loved your recipe!
That mixture sounds amazing! It will be delicious. Thank you!
This is amazeballs!!!!
I enjoyed this recipe. My kids liked it too!
Made these last night. Best fat bomb I’ve made yet!! Absolutely love! I put the mixture in mini-muffin tins. It’s hard to not eat way too many!
I am highly allergic to cream cheese, cheese, and cottage cheese. Is there anything else that can be substituted for cream cheese? Thank you!
You can make the chewy almond flour cookies on our food blog that don’t require cream cheese.
What size scoop/measuring cup did you use to portion the servings?
Can this dough be frozen?
Are you going to try an alternative recipe using Sukrin Gold (a sugar-free brown sugar substitute)?
We used a 1 inch cookie scooper! And yes, you can freeze these.
This has got to be the best dessert recipe I have ever tried since starting keto. It was so good,I will never miss cheesecake ever again. Only thing left is to find a low carb crust I can eat with it to give the real cheesecake vibe. Great job guys
I don’t have the liquid Stevia, but I have Xylitol on hand. What is the equivalent measurement I would need to use for this sweetener?
https://www.wholesomeyum.com/natural-low-carb-sweeteners-guide-conversion-chart/
2 tsp liquid stevia = 1/3 cup of Xylitol 🙂
OMG so damn good! Keep creating your keto goodness, love you guys!
This is the best desert ever, and extremely easy. Thank you guys!!! Every single person liked them, even those who are not on Keto were asking for recipe….???
These are the most delicious fat bombs I’ve made!! Thank you for keeping Keto fun and easy!
My stomach can not tolerate stevia. What can I sub for the liquid stevia and keep the net carbs the same/similar?
Have you tried liquid Monk Fruit for sweetener? It has the same net carbs as Stevia and you may tolerate it better.
My wife and I started keto 25 days ago with amazing results thanks to you two.
Love all your YouTube videos. Keep ’em coming!
Question: made your latest cookie dough recipe twice now (amazingly delicious) and added up the carbs minus fiber in the total recipe of ingredients. We are using the exact same ingredients in your recipe. My carb count after fiber subtraction is 72. I get about 20 scoops from the mixture which brings the carb count to 3.6 per scoop ater fiber is subtracted.
Please show me my math error. I don’t want to give these up!
Thanks

Did you include the carbs from Erythritol? We don’t count those carbs because they don’t effect blood sugar at all.
Love cookie dough recipes! Takes me back to childhood and sneaking the batter from the bowl. Interestingly it’s not (so) much the raw eggs that are a concern in cookie dough but the raw flour, it can contain E.Coli and must be cooked before being considered safe to eat. Luckily on keto we don’t eat that and there are no such concerns with almond flour. Thanks for the recipe!
Made these today, they are WONDERFULLY DELICIOUS! I used the golden monkfruit granules for sweetener because it’s all I had today. (Cant remember the name)
Thank you for yet another hit.
So I was just wondering if u can bake them for cookies??
No, you cannot bake them into cookies. They well melt into a soupy mess in your oven! But we do have two other Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipes on our blog to try out.
This is so freaking delicious! Thank you for such a fantastic recipe!
These are great! And super easy to make!
Has anyone tried freezing this? If so how well did it go? I was thinking a couple frozen scoops of this in a Keto root beer float would be amazing.
Yes, you can freeze them, but not sure how the root beer float will turn out! The almond flour may not melt into the root beer very well.
This recipe is fantastic! I just made a batch of them and they are perfect. I used my small cookie scoop and I ended up with 24 rather than 12. I put the little scoops in mini muffin papers, really cute.
