These chocolate chip vegan and keto cookie dough bites will be one of the tastiest, easiest treats you'll ever make! They feature egg-free, edible cookie dough in a dark chocolate coating and will be one of the easiest, tastiest treats you'll ever make! 

These chocolate chip keto cookie dough bites are the perfect guilt-free treat! They are full of healthy fats, contain diet-friendly sweeteners, and can be made either low-carb or Paleo.

While they're great as-is, I prefer to add a chocolate drizzle or coating to make them extra chocolaty and decadent.

I highly recommend the chocolate coating, it turns a great recipe into a to-die-for recipe!

Keto or paleo

This cookie dough can be made either keto or paleo - it mainly depends on the type of sweetener you choose.

For the keto version, you can choose any keto sweetener you prefer - but it must be powdered! I prefer Besti Powdered Sweeteners, but any brand will work!

If you choose to make the Paleo version, you can sweeten them with a combination of coconut palm sugar and maple syrup or honey. I've tried them using only 1 Paleo sweetener, but the taste is much better using a combination.

Since we're using a liquid sweetener for this version we will also need to reduce the butter or coconut oil so they have the right texture.

The instructions for the Paleo version are in the notes of the recipe card.

🥥 Coconut oil or butter

If you can eat dairy, I would choose to use butter over coconut oil. Butter gives them that classic chocolate chip cookie dough flavor. When choosing which butter to use, I recommend grass-fed.

Grass-fed butter tastes a million times better and contains vitamin K, anti-inflammatory properties, and has a completely different nutritional profile than regular butter.

I always recommend splurging on grass-fed butter if you can.

If you don't eat dairy though, you can substitute your favorite non-dairy butter or use coconut oil.

If you choose to use refined coconut oil instead of unrefined, it will reduce the coconut aftertaste.

🔪 Easy instructions

Start by whisking together 1 cup of almond flour, salt, baking soda (added for taste), and powdered sweetener.

In a separate small bowl, melt the butter or coconut oil.

Add the melted butter or coconut oil to the dry ingredients, along with some chocolate chips and pure vanilla. The batter will be a bit crumbly.

Roll the batter into small, bite-sized balls and place on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.

If they're too crumbly add additional butter or coconut oil until the dough sticks together when rolled into a ball.

Place the fat bombs in the fridge while melting the chocolate.

🍫 Chocolate coating

To melt the chocolate, place 1/2 cup chocolate chips and 2 tsp. butter or coconut oil in a microwavable safe bowl.

Heat 30 seconds then stir. Then, heat in 15-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until fully melted.

If you prefer not to use a microwave, place the ingredients in a large, heatproof bowl over a small pot of boiling water, being sure the bottom of the bowl isn't touching the water.

Stir until completely melted then remove from heat.

How to coat with chocolate

Using a fork, roll the keto cookie dough in the melted chocolate, one at a time, and tap off the excess.

Then, place them back on the parchment paper and put in the fridge until the chocolate hardens, 30 minutes to an hour.

How to drizzle with chocolate

Place the chocolate in a plastic baggie and push all of it into the bottom corner of the bag. Snip off the very end of the corner and drizzle over the cookie dough bites while still on the parchment-lined baking sheet.

Place back in the fridge until chocolate is hardened - 30 minutes to an hour.

The chocolate can be drizzled directly over the bites or after they're coated in chocolate to be extra pretty!
