Sugar-free Maple Syrup - Any sugar-free syrup of your choice will work great in this recipe.
Almond Flour - Almond flour is a great low-carb flour that works beautifully in baked goods. Try to find finely ground almond flour for the best texture.

Best tips
Working with almond flour can be tricky if you’re not used to it. Remember when measuring almond flour to spoon your flour into your measuring cup, then level it. Do not dip your measuring cup into the flour then level it, it will be too much almond flour.
If you store almond flour in the freezer you’ll want to bring it to room temperature before you use it.
You don't have to add sugar-free chocolate chips (or chunks) to this keto cookie dough recipe, but they really do bring this low-carb cookie dough to the next level. Any sugar-free chocolate sweetened with Stevia and/or Erythritol (both sweeteners are zero-carb sugar sweeteners) works in this keto cookie dough recipe.
You can add chopped low carb nuts like pecans, brazil nuts, walnuts or your favorite add-ins.
Storage Tips: Keto Cookie Dough can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.

I haven't had them more than 5 days. You can always freeze a few and pull them out of the freezer when you have a sweet tooth.

Pretty good! I added vanilla extract and salt to it, which made it much better in my opinion. Not quite like normal cookie dough, but yummy nonetheless.
