Step 1: Cream the Wet Ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, peanut butter, vanilla extract, and sweetener.
Beat until smooth and creamy.
Step 2: Add the Dry Ingredients
Stir in the almond flour and salt.
Mix until a soft cookie dough forms.
If the mixture is too dry, add 1 teaspoon of milk or heavy cream at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
Step 3: Fold in the Chocolate Chips
Gently stir in the sugar-free chocolate chips and chopped nuts, if using.
Mix until evenly distributed.
Step 4: Fill the Jars
Spoon the cookie dough into small serving jars or bowls.
Smooth the tops and sprinkle with a few extra chocolate chips.
Step 5: Chill
Refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend and the dough to firm up.
Step 6: Serve
Enjoy chilled straight from the jar, or use it as a topping for yogurt or ice cream.
Tips for Success
- Use finely ground almond flour for the smoothest texture.
- Let the butter soften before mixing to make blending easier.
- Store in individual jars for quick grab-and-go treats.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of almond extract for extra flavor.
Storage
- Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Freezer: Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
Nutrition Note
Although this version is lower in carbohydrates than traditional cookie dough, it is not carbohydrate-free. Almond flour, peanut butter, and sugar-free chocolate chips all contain some carbohydrates, and the dessert is still calorie-dense due to the nuts and butter. Enjoy it as part of a balanced diet.
