Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 355°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, melt the salted butter in the microwave or on the stovetop until it’s fully melted.
- Add the Erythritol to the melted butter and mix until well combined.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and the egg until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
- In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, xanthan gum (if using), and salt. Mix well to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
- Once the dough is formed, fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie as they will spread slightly during baking.
- Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, enjoy these delicious keto dark chocolate chip cookies with a glass of almond milk or your favorite keto-friendly beverage!
