When you have that, I-need-to-bake-moment and all else goes on hold…
Basically, today in a nut shell.
I was out for a couple days, traveling three hours back and forth- just to go to the dentist.
Oh, the joy. š
After coming home, after having my mouth pried open, I was in just really in the mood to turn on some therapeutic Full House in the background and bake some cookies for the family.
Are you one of those people who just like to bake- even if it’s past noon, so you can’t eat chocolate?
Because I am!
I will stay up all. night. long. if I eat chocolate after noon, so I try and keep my chocolate hour before that.
But, if I still feel like baking after that; thankfully, I have a bunch of mouths who will gobble up dozens of cookies…
They devoured all my keto chocolate chip cookies by the time I got home, so naturally, I had to make some more cookies to keep the stock up!
what kind of chocolate chip cookie person are you?
Are you a wait-for-the-final-version or a gimmie-the-bowl-of-cookie-dough-and-a-spoon type of person?
Because, I am most definitely the second!
It’s a rare time that I actually wait to eat a cookie after it comes out of the oven.
Usually, my cookies look like a lump of dough on a spoon loaded down with chocolate chips.
And that’s just the way I like it.
I wouldn’t change anything!
These cookies are oh so soft and make the perfect go-to after lunch or to pack in one of these stasher bags for on the go!
I spent awhile messing around with this recipe trying to get it right.
As I was going along, adding this and that, it finally came out just right.
I have to say, the key to a stellar low-sugar cookie has to be the gelatin!
It ads a chewy sugary-like texture that is cookie perfection.
It’s not necessary for this recipe, but it will elevate the whole experience and it’s highly suggested. š

This is a must try. Looks delicious in your photos. Thank you for this low sugar and gluten-free recipe. Iām wondering if I can replace the cassava flour with arrowroot flour?
Hi there, sorry- the cassava flour can only be subbed for regular wheat flour…
This cookie dough is like soup!
Hi Jackie, it’s probably because of your brand of cassava flour- what brand did you use?
Trying these this morning. I thought I needed 2 eggs but the batter is too thin. Should I add more flour to thicken? Next time, just 1 egg. :). Thanks for the recipe.
Hi Debra, the amount of flour may be more because of a different brand of cassava flour, so I would go ahead and add more flour.
Can you replace gelatin with something else? Or remove it all together?
Hi Melissa, you can leave it out, but you won’t get the same result (more delicious texture!), but it will work.
