Low Carb Mexican Hot Chocolate Cookies

Keto Recipes > Keto Dessert Recipes

I’ve been making a lot of sweets lately, and I am starting to get tired of them. Weird huh? I guess I have no sweet tooth anymore, I much prefer the savory side of things.

I wanted to make something different, and stumbled on a recipe for some spicy cookies. Sounded good to me, as I know chocolate and spice can pair up really well together – let’s just say these Mexican hot chocolate cookies turned out great. I was really pleased with them, despite my recent grudges with coconut flour.

The Preparation

  • ¾ cup coconut flour
  • ½ cup coconut oil
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 8 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup Splenda
  • 1 ½ teaspoons chili powder
  • 2 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

The Execution

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, get your coconut flour in there.

3. In a microwave safe container, get your coconut oil and butter inside. Put it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to get it liquified.

6. Mix this well, so that the liquid completely soaks into the dry ingredients.

7. Knead it together if you have to, I like to use my hands.

8. On a sprayed down pan, form the dough into cookies with your hand. I tried to roll the dough out but it crumbled into pieces.

9. Bake for 12-15 minutes. They will be a little bit soft when you take them out.

10. Let them cool off for a bit, and eat away! I ate them with some low carb calorie countdown (milk substitute).
