# Expert Insights:

01 -
  • You get all the nostalgic joy of eating raw cookie dough without any of the guilt or worry about raw eggs
  • It comes together in literally ten minutes with ingredients you probably already have in your keto pantry
  • The texture is outrageously creamy and the chocolate chunks make it feel like an actual indulgent treat
02 -
  • The dough firms up considerably after chilling in the refrigerator, so do not panic if it feels too soft at room temperature
  • Different brands of almond flour absorb moisture differently, so trust your hands more than the exact measurements
  • This keeps perfectly in the refrigerator for up to five days, though ours never lasts past day two
03 -
  • Substitute sunflower seed flour for the almond flour if you need nut-free but still want keto
  • Use coconut oil instead of butter and coconut cream instead of heavy cream for completely dairy-free
  • Let the dough sit overnight in the refrigerator for the flavors to really meld together
