In fact, the best selling cookie in the world, the Oreo, is one of the most widely consumed foods in America.

Low Carb Coconut Chip Cookies
These cookies are a great addition to anyone's rotation of desserts. The coconut and cacao nibs add a fantastic crunchy, chewy, texture. These cookies have plenty of micronutrients, including magnesium which is a fantastic natural way to combat chocolate cravings. Cacao nibs come from the seeds of the fruit of the cacao tree, usually roasted and taken out of their husks. They may sound sweet and soft, but they're quite bitter and crunchy.

Keto Gingersnap Cookies
With the holidays coming up, I thought it would be a good idea to start working on some holiday inspired recipes. My first cookie recipe this season is a moist and soft keto gingersnap cookie. This was the closest I could get to a real tasting gingersnap cookie without adding real molasses. The outside of the cookie looks and feels hard, but when you take a bite you can taste the soft buttery middle. Yum! I made these cookies smaller in size, and I prefer them that way. If you want a ...

Keto Chocolate Coconut Macaroon Cookies
Coconut macaroons hold a dear spot in my heart when it comes to sweet treats. My mom used to make coconut macaroons every new year for the celebrations - and they always disappeared within minutes. These keto friendly treats aren't exactly coconut macaroons - but they are equally as good! The other night I was craving coconut macaroons, and my girlfriend was craving cookies. So we took it together to create a mixture of the two that we could both eat and love. Hence, coconut macaroon cookies! ...
