Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies (Copycat Attempt)

-
As I mentioned over on my Instagram, I was attempting to copycat the cookies made by High Key. A request from another keto friend that I am sure you all know - Megan. Problem? I have never tried these cookies. From what I had seen and the ingredients listed on the package, it looks like they may be a keto version of a crunchy mini cookie along the lines of Keebler or Famous Amos. That is what I set out to make.

That being said, I am really quite impressed with the first trial of this recipe. I am sharing the exact ingredients I used since that is the only way I have tried this recipe so far, but feel free to experiment and let me know how it goes.

INGREDIENTS

  • ½ Cup (52g) Almond Flour
  • 2 Tbsp (15g) Lupin Flour
  • ½ Scoop (8g) Perfect Keto Salted Caramel Collagen (can use KETOON for a discount if interested)
  • 2 Tbsp Sweet Cream Butter
  • 2 Tbsp Coconut Oil
  • Egg Yolk
  • ¼ Cup Brown 'sugar' (I make my own from Erythritol, Mapeline, and Stevia Glycerite)
  • ¼ tsp Pink Salt
  • ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/8 tsp Guar Gum
  • ¼ Cup Lily's Baking Chips (I did use a little less than this, but that was just personal preference. I stopped when the batter seemed good and chipped)

PROCESS 

  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 350 and lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix your dry ingredients: Almond Flour, Lupin Flour, & Collagen. Set aside.
  3. Cream together Butter, Coconut Oil, and Sweetener. Add in your egg yolk and vanilla. Then add guar gum and baking soda.
  4. Pour your flour mixture into the wet ingredients, mix with a spatula first to ensure it doesn't go everywhere and then mix with a hand mixer until combined. 
  5. Fold in chocolate chips.
  6. For mini cookies (well... more miniature than regular cookies) scoop out about 1 tsp rounds onto your baking sheet. Flatten a bit and shape with your hands. Mine made about 15 mini cookies.
  7. Place in middle rack of your preheated oven for roughly 13 minutes. (You know the drill. All ovens vary so keep an eye on them)

As I mentioned in my post on Instagram - I will not be taking full credit for this one. This is a mixture of a couple different recipes I found online. Both Maya from Wholesome Yum & The Traveling Pastry Hunter put in the time and effort to work out all the details the first time around, so I wanted to be sure to give them credit. That being said, I mixed them together due to the ingredients I had, my need for them to be stable at room temp, and possibly a little bit of laziness thrown in for good measure. I am including an "Tools" section this time as well, since I am pretty sure without the immersion blender this would not be as amazing as it is. If you try without it I would definitely be interested to hear how it goes! TOOLS: Double Boiler (or if you are like me, a pot and a glass bowl) Immersion Blender (also called stick blender I think?) Chocolate Molds (okay, you can totally line a baking sheet with wax paper and just spread it out there) INGREDIENT

This one is incredibly simple if you already have white chocolate handy - and my husband thinks they turned out the best! (Strictly speaking of looks, he doesn't like peanut butter. I thought about having him committed since that simply doesn't seem natural to me... but to each their own I suppose.) Diving right in! INGREDIENTS: 40g White Chocolate 2 Tbsp Peanut Butter PROCESS: Chop up your white chocolate into small chunks and melt down. You can do this over a double boiler, but I just use the microwave. Same as the other chocolate melting I have mentioned. Chop finely, microwave for 30 second intervals at 30% power. Stir between each microwave sesh. Once you get it to a stage where most of it is melted and there are just a few chunks left - stir your heart out. Once you get your chocolate fully melted down - you simply mix it into the peanut butter.  Pour this mixture into your molds of choice (hopefully already lined with chocolate) - allow to set up at room
