Keto Chocolate Covered Macaroons

Keto Recipes > Keto Dessert Recipes

Fat bombs are a staple for many that are on a ketogenic diet. With the ease of being able to hit your macro goals with something delicious that’s almost entirely made from fat, there’s definitely a reason to see why they’re so popular. Usually when I make fat bombs, I’ll make something frozen – but I like having a bit of a change. So, I decided to make some chocolate covered macaroons!

These little macaroons are sweet, gooey, and a delight with every bite. Each macaroon has a wonderful coconut, almond, and chocolate flavor – with 90% calories coming from fat. It’s like a perfect little fat bomb packaged up into a delectable little cookie.

MacaroonsSecond

You can choose to either drizzle your macaroons with chocolate, dunk them halfway or completely coat them. For added almond flavor, consider dunking the entire cookie in melted chocolate and dusting crushed almonds over top.

These will be perfect for the holidays to bring out to your guests, too! Chocolate is great for this time of season and these macaroons just scream holidays for some reason. Feel free to make them in advance too, they refrigerate well and can keep for 5-6 days in there. No pressure on eating them all at once!

Yields 12 Keto Chocolate Covered Macaroons

The Preparation

The Execution

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and spread a cup of shredded, unsweetened coconut on into a thin layer on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Once the oven is hot enough, place the coconut in to toast up a bit. This should take about 4-5 minutes. This step is optional but brings out an extra coconutty flavor.

2. While the coconut is toasting, beat your egg white until it’s foamy and doubled in size.

6. Using a small ice cream scoop (or your hands) tightly pack little balls of macaroon batter and gently place them on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. This recipe should make about 12 macaroons 1.5 inches in diameter. Bake until they’re golden, about 15 minutes.

7. While they’re baking, make the chocolate drizzle by melting coconut oil and sugar-free chocolate. Stir continuously to make sure the chocolate doesn’t burn.

8. Once the macaroons are out of the oven, drizzle your chocolate over each one of them. If you choose to dunk the macaroons into the chocolate, make sure to let them cool completely before handling. Enjoy!
