5 Minute Low Carb Hot Chocolate Recipe

November 15, 2018 By faith 2 Comments

This 5 Minute Low Carb Hot Chocolate Recipe is creamy, rich, and deeply chocolaty with complex flavor notes of vanilla and coffee.

As a kid, one of the things I looked forward to most about winter – in addition to snow days – was hot chocolate! There was something incredibly magical about spending the better part of the day sledding, coming inside only to thaw out our red cheeks and frozen fingers and drink cocoa, and then heading back out to brave the cold again.…

Low Carb Chocolate Whoopie Pies with Keto Cheesecake Buttercream

October 11, 2018 By faith 2 Comments

Low Carb Chocolate Whoopie Pies with Keto Cheesecake Buttercream are a low carb remake of a classic childhood favorite.

One of the things I love about a ketogenic way of eating is that it’s fairly easy to remake just about any recipe into a keto version of itself. Childhood favorites and classic comfort foods are some of my favorite recipes to play with….

September 20, 2018 By faith 1 Comment

This rich, intensely chocolaty Fudgy Keto Brownie Recipe with Walnuts and Chocolate Frosting is the perfect way to satisfy a chocolate-lovers’ sweet tooth.

Brownie lovers living a low carb lifestyle, I have a real treat for you today. On my quest to find the best fudgy keto brownie recipe I did a lot of experimenting. I’ve used countless secret ingredients (like gelatin, flaxseed meal, and psyllium husk powder), endless variations of flours, and a combination of different keto-friendly sweeteners….

Flourless Chocolate Cake with Caramel and Chocolate Ganache (Paleo Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Recipe)

September 6, 2018 By faith 1 Comment

This Flourless Chocolate Cake with Caramel and Chocolate Ganache (Paleo Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Recipe) is a fun twist on a classic candy: the turtle!

My inspiration for this cake was turtle candy, which is pecans and caramel dipped in chocolate. This cake’s flavor is deep chocolate and it’s sweet enough without being too sweet; its texture is light without being overly fluffy or spongy. On top of the cake I added a layer of vegan caramel made from dates and a couple other common ingredients. I made a quick chocolate ganache layer using cacao butter as the base for topping the caramel, but if you’re pressed for time you could melt a chocolate bar and use that instead. Additionally, a sprinkling of pecans adds crunch and nutty flavor….

Low Carb Samoa Cookie Truffles (aka Chocolate Covered Caramel Coconut Candy)

August 16, 2018 By faith Leave a Comment

Inspired by the deliciously addictive Girl Scout cookie, but with just 2.5g net carbs per truffle, these Low Carb Samoa Cookie Truffles (aka Chocolate Covered Caramel Coconut Candy) are the perfect trick to have up your sleeve when a craving hits.

Let’s face it, we all get chocolate cravings. One afternoon I couldn’t get Girl Scout cookies out of my head (Samoas are just a little bit evil like that, lol). I knew I could remake a keto-friendly version of Samoas, but I wanted something a bit different.

Because they’re a great keto tool to help reach your macros, I make a lot of different types of fat bombs. They’re always a good option when you want something that feels like an indulgence, but is actually rich in healthy fats. In addition to Girl Scout Cookies, keto fat bombs were another source of inspiration for these truffles….

Growing up most of us had a favorite candy bar, something like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Heath, or Almond Joy. Well, keto friends, there’s absolutely no reason we can’t remake those classic favorites into keto-friendly versions that we can eat and enjoy, and even use as a means to get in high-quality fat to keep our macos on-point, fuel ourselves, and stay in ketosis! If you liked Almond Joy bars before going keto, you’ll LOVE these Keto Almond Joy Candy Bars….

This thick and rich Healthy Paleo-Friendly Snickers Smoothie with chocolate, caramel sauce, and salted peanuts will have you convinced you’re eating ice cream when it’s actually healthy enough for breakfast.

What if I told you it’s easy to transform a banana and just a few other ingredients (which are mostly just fridge and/or pantry staples) into something that tastes like both a milkshake and a candy bar? Welcome to the world of smoothies….

Low-Carb Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Fat Bombs

February 1, 2018 By faith 2 Comments

Keto Low-Carb Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Fat Bombs taste like regular cookie dough, but without the sugar crash and with the nutrient-rich addition of grass-fed healthy fats.

We all have one or two desserts that we just can’t pass up. Maybe it’s New York-style cheesecake, or a hot fudge sundae or carrot cake (we even sometimes try to convince ourselves that the last one is healthy, right? Because forget all the sugar, flour, and unhealthy fats, when dessert has a carrot in it, it must be healthy, lol). For me, that one dessert is cookie dough….

Baked Chocolate Custard Tarts

April 13, 2017 By faith Leave a Comment

Paleo-friendly Baked Chocolate Custard Tarts feature a smooth and dense chocolate filling with a nutty crust.

When there’s a single lonely avocado that’s about to be on its last legs in the fridge, guacamole is typically on the menu. But then there are those times when I get creative and dream up chocolate indulgences to make a little healthier with avocado (like my Fudgy Blueberry-Orange Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Avocado Ganache and 5-Minute Classic Chocolate Avocado Mousse)….
