This is one of the simplest ice cream recipes that I know of when it comes to keto. You don't have to make a custard, you don't have to freeze or refrigerate the mixture before adding it to your ice cream machine, and you don't have to wait around to temper anything. It's simply blend, add, and eat! I'm using a pretty fancy Gelato maker for this. It has a built in compressor, so it's also pretty expensive. My girlfriend picked it up a few years back on sale for around $120, which was a ...
No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Fat Bombs
April 8, 2015 by 35 Comments
I've been seeing a lot of pins on Pinterest for recipes on No Bake Oatmeal Power Bites. I wanted to create a keto friendly version, with a similar texture in mind. Because they're no bake, they're extremely simple to create and don't take much time or effort. Instead of using regular peanut butter, we opt to go with the powder due to the absorptive properties. The PB Fit powder really ties it all together, balancing the sweetness and chocolate out with a creamy and nutty flavor. The hemp ...

Keto Chocolate Coconut Macaroon Cookies
March 31, 2015 by 11 Comments
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! ...

Cherry Chocolate Chunk Donuts
February 8, 2015 by 9 Comments
I wanted to make something extra special for Valentine's Day. This year, my girlfriend has really been craving donuts after seeing them over and over at markets, coffee shops and sports games. I decided to re-create her ultimate favorite flavor from Yo-Yo Donuts: their Cherry Chocolate Donut. They came out great! These donuts are just the perfect amount of crisp on the outside, but soft and fluffy on the inside. If you've been missing out on chocolate, worry no more. ChocoPerfection is a ...

Pumpkin Pie Spice Scone Cookies
October 11, 2014 by 4 Comments
I recently went to Trader Joe's and saw that they had some Pumpkin Scone cookies on sale. It seemed almost too good to be true when I laid my eyes on them, but I definitely wanted to re-create these and have them be a part of my keto repertoire as soon as possible. Truth be told, my girlfriend has a bit of a sweet tooth and was really insistent on having a keto version. So, after heading to the farmer's market, I saw these beautiful squash on sale for only $1 per! I couldn't resist as the ...

Low Carb Cookie Butter
September 18, 2014 by 12 Comments
If you've never had cookie butter, then you really missed out! Think about grabbing a spoonful of smooth peanut butter out of the jar, but it's got a Fall-like cinnamon and ginger cookie taste. Seriously delicious and perfect for this time of the year. I'd say dip stuff in it, but really...we all know that's not going to happen. Go ahead and grab your spoon, dip, and lick it off - a great way to end a meal. If that's not your thing, it really goes great on freshly made waffles in the morning. ...

Peanut Butter Caramel Milkshake
September 5, 2014 by 20 Comments
If you're a sane person, then peanut butter is probably one of your guilty pleasures - I know it's one of mine. But, when we're on a ketogenic diet, we can't always grab it by the spoonful to lick it off as a snack because of the carb count. Every once in a while, though, I get a huge craving for peanut butter and have to make something that'll combat it. So, since I've been on a smoothie/milkshake stint lately, I decided to put together something I know you'd all love. You can also sub out ...

McKeto Strawberry Milkshake
September 2, 2014 by 22 Comments
Growing up as a kid, I had my fair share of fast food takeout. Some of them I still miss to this day and try to recreate (a lot of the time in failure, but don't tell anyone). One of them that I was thinking about lately? McDonald's Strawberry Milkshake. Their disgustingly sweet syrup mixed into ice cream and served up to me in the nostalgic paper cup. Not the most beautiful thing to remember from my childhood, but it certainly holds something dear in my heart. Well, I think I've done it ...

Cinnamon Roll Pudding Pops
August 30, 2014 by 4 Comments
I've been frequenting foodgawker more and more and realized that there's so many popsicle recipes coming out. So many delicious looking popsicles...that I had to make my own. I grabbed the NoPro Popsicle Mold off of Amazon (nothing beats those awesome old fashioned wooden sticks) and waited my 2 days on Amazon Prime. When it arrived, I had already made my Cinnamon Roll "Oatmeal" recipe so I said why not? Let's see what happens and hopefully it'll be good. Good? No, it was amazing! ...

Keto Chocolate Roll Cake
August 26, 2014 by 65 Comments
When I was a kid, my mom usually packed my lunch box with snacks and sweets that I could finish the day off with. From oatmeal cookies to honey buns, there was always tons of sugar packed inside. Well...now I guess I know why I gained so much weight in my childhood ;) One of the things I still remember, though, are those little Swiss Cakes from Little Debbie. Lately, I've been thinking about them more and more, wanting to recreate them...but elevate them in flavor and bring them over to the ...
