Ingredients You’ll Need

• Low Carb Sweetener – I prefer a good Monk Fruit Blend 
• Almond Flour – it’s best to use finely ground almond flour that has been blanched. 
• Coconut Flour – you won’t need much, but I find that doing a little bit of coconut flour along with the almond flour provides the best texture
• ChocZero Raspberry Jam – you could make your own, but ChocZero makes an excellent keto-friendly jam!
• Lily’s White Chocolate baking chips – these are totally optional, but make for a pretty cookie when it’s drizzled on top.
• Fridge and Pantry staples – cream cheese, butter, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt

Steps for Making Keto Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter until well combined.

Step 3: Add the granulated monk fruit blend and continue beating until well combined.

Step 4: Add the egg and vanilla extract and continue beating until smooth.

Step 5: Add in the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt and continue beating until the dough forms.

Step 6: Scoop the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet and slightly flatten with your hand. Then with your thumb or utensil, add a small indentation in the center,

Step 7: Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until the edges just begin to brown. 

Step 8: Allow the cookies to cool for 1 minute, and then use your thumb or utensil to redefine the indentation which may have puffed up during baking.

Step 9: Allow the cookies to cool for another 5-10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

Step 10: Spoon about ½ teaspoon of the filling into the indentation of each cookie and let set for 1 hour. 

Optional Step 11: Melt Lily’s white chocolate in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, and then drizzle the melted white chocolate over the cookies, and allow 1 hour to set.

Variations to This Recipe

• Use a different flavor of jam from ChocZero or make your own keto-friendly jam
• Use a different flavor of chocolate chips to drizzle over the cookies. Lily’s makes dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, butterscotch, and mint chocolate, plus a variety of seasonal flavors!
• Try a different low-carb sweetener. You could use another granulated low-carb sweetener, but I would stick with a sweetener that includes erythritol. Using sweeteners like Allulose or BochoSweet will make the cookies too soft. 

Your Questions Answered!

What is ChocZero Raspberry Jam

ChocZero offers an all-natural, keto-friendly raspberry jam with only 1 gram of net carbs. 

Making sugar-free homemade jams can be a time-consuming process, so ChocZero has developed a quick and easy solution – their low-sugar raspberry fruit spread. 

Raspberries are boiled with monk fruit and low glycemic melon, as well as chia seeds, to create a sweet treat without any added sugar. 

This healthy jelly holds up well in baking applications, making it ideal for sandwiches and keto jam recipes alike.

Can you substitute all coconut flour to make these nut free?

Almond flour and coconut flour do not have a 1:1 ratio, so I don’t recommend an even swap. Coconut flour is very absorbent and needs a lot more liquid compared to almond flour. 

How do you store Keto Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies?

These can be stored on the counter in an airtight container for up to 5 days, in the fridge for up to 10 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
