Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Melt the butter: In a microwave-safe bowl or using a stovetop, melt the salted butter until fully liquid. Allow it to cool slightly.
3. Combine wet ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, erythritol, and vanilla extract. Mix well until the erythritol is dissolved.
4. Add the egg: Add the large egg to the mixture and beat until well combined.
5. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum (if using), and salt.
6. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing continuously until a cookie dough forms.
7. Fold in chocolate chips: Gently fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips into the cookie dough until they are evenly distributed.
8. Chill the dough (optional): For best results, you can refrigerate the cookie dough for about 30 minutes. This helps to firm up the dough and enhance the flavor.
9. Shape the cookies: Using a cookie scoop or your hands, shape the cookie dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each.
10. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Keep in mind that baking times may vary, so it’s essential to keep an eye on them.
11. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
12. Enjoy: Once the cookies are completely cool, enjoy your delicious Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
