Ring around the Root Beer Float

Creamy, cool and elegant, this old-fashioned gelatin brings back memories of root beer floats on hot summer days. The carbonated water lightens the gelatin and adds a little sparkle to the root beer. Try cherry, vanilla or even lime soda water to add another layer of flavor to this creamy delight.

Equipment

Ring mold

Ingredients

1/2 cup cold water
2 tablespoons powdered gelatin
1/4 cup granulated sweetener
2 servings Root Beer Float Keto Chow (or 2 scoops)
1 cup heavy cream
3 cups unsweetened, carbonated water divided

Instructions

Place the cold water in a small saucepan and sprinkle the gelatin over the surface.
Allow the gelatin to soften for a minute or two.
Place the pan over medium-low heat and heat while stirring until all the gelatin has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling - about 190-200 degrees.
Add the sweetener and stir until completely dissolved.
Set the gelatin mixture aside to cool slightly.
Whisk or blend the Keto Chow, heavy cream, and one cup of the carbonated water together until there are no lumps remaining. Mix in the gelatin.
Gently stir in the rest of the carbonated water, being careful to keep as much carbonation in it as possible. Pour the mixture into your ring mold or an attractive serving bowl.
Cover and refrigerate overnight.
To serve, unmold onto a platter or serve in the bowl garnished with fresh whipped cream and berries if desired.

Orange Cream Keto Dreamsicles

Summer is right around the corner and orange and vanilla is one of my favorite flavor combinations so I couldn’t resist making keto dreamsicles with my Orange Cream Keto Chow. The sour cream in this recipe gives the popsicles a little tang and the oil helps keep them creamy in the freezer.

Author: Taffiny Elrod

Ingredients

Cookies

1/2 cup avocado oil or mild tasting olive oil
1 large egg
1/2 cup granulated sweetener (I used allulose)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup Chocolate Keto Chow
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips

Filling

4 ounces unsalted butter, softened (1 stick)
1 cup confectioner’s style sweetener (I used erythritol)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

Prepare Cookies

Prepare a cookie sheet by lining with parchment paper or aluminum foil
Place the oil, egg and sweetener in a large mixing bowl and whisk together.
Add the Keto Chow, cocoa powder, baking powder, and cinnamon and mix to combine.
The dough will should be soft and glossy when its fully mixed.
Stir in the chocolate chips.
Measure out eight evenly sized cookies onto the prepared cookie sheet. I use a small ice cream scoop for this.
Bake at 325 degrees for 10 minutes until the cookies are just beginning to brown around the edges but they are still slightly soft to the touch.
When they are done baking, allow then to cool completely. While the are cooling make the cream filling.

Filling and final prep.

Beat the butter with an electric mixer until it is light and fluffy. Beat the sweetener in a little at a time, on low speed. Add the vanilla extract and beat until everything is fully mixed and the cream begins to look stiff.
Spread a quarter of the filling on one cookie and top with another cookie. Continue until you have four cookie sandwiches.
Store the sandwiches in an air tight container in the refrigerator or individually wrapped in plastic.

Ingredients

2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 serving Salted Caramel Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
1/2 cup powdered erythritol (Swerve)
6 large room temperature egg whites
1/2 cup keto candied almonds or sliced toasted almonds

Instructions

Prepare an ice cream mold or loaf pan by lining with plastic wrap or waxed paper.
With an electric mixer, beat the cream until it starts to thicken. When it begins to look like melted ice cream, slowly add the Keto Chow and sweetener.
Continue to whip the cream until it holds stiff peaks.
Fold in the candied almonds.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they are stiff but not dry. Be sure the bowl and beaters are very clean and there isn’t even a drop of egg yolk in the whites or the whites will not whip successfully. You can wipe the bowl and the beaters down with white vinegar to ensure they are clean.
Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the Keto Chow mixture.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared ice cream mold or loaf pan and wrap tightly with plastic wrap.
Freeze overnight.
Unmold the loaf onto a serving dish and slice to serve.
Garnish with reserved almonds, fresh berries, and whipped cream, if desired.

Ingredients

Cupcakes

1 cup almond milk
1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
2 servings Raspberry Cheesecake Keto Chow
1 cup almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1 Tbsp. cocoa powder preferably Dutch process cocoa powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 stick unsalted butter softened (4 ounces)
3/4 cup granulated sweetener
2 large eggs
1-2 tsp. red food coloring

Frosting

1 serving Raspberry Cheesecake Keto Chow
6 Tbsp. heavy whipping cream
4 oz. cream cheese
1/2 cup powdered erythritol
2 sticks unsalted butter softened and cut into pieces
1 pint fresh raspberries, washed and dried for decorating

Instructions

Cupcakes

Preheat oven to 350℉ and line a standard muffin tin.
To make the cupcakes, combine the almond milk, vinegar, and vanilla extract. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix together the Keto Chow, almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda.
Cream butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the erythritol; then beat in the eggs, one at a time.
Beat in half the flour mixture. Slowly mix in the almond milk mixture a little at a time so it doesn’t splash out of the bowl, then beat in the remaining flour mixture.
Mix in the red food coloring. Add enough to make the batter bright red. The amount needed will depend on what type of coloring you use.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups.
Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until slightly firm to the touch and lightly browned around the edges.
Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.

Frosting

To make the frosting, blend the Keto Chow and heavy cream in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
Beat in the cream cheese and then the powdered erythritol.
Beat in the softened butter a few pieces at a time until the mixture is light, fluffy and smooth.
Frost the cupcakes and decorate with raspberries.

Soft Baked Keto Cookies & Cream Cookies

I am really excited about these cookies! They are the best cookies I have made since going keto. They are soft, tender and lightly sweet. They really behave and taste like traditional cookies and they are so easy to make. Everyone who tried them loved them! Have fun with this recipe and make it your own. Add your favorite sugar-free chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or seeds, or use sugar-free jam to make thumbprint cookies. You can even roll the dough out and use cookie cutters to cut out perfect cookies!

Recipe Creator: Chef Taffiny Elrod

Servings: small cookies

Calories: 50.1kcal

Author: Taffiny Elrod

Ingredients

1 cup Cookies and Cream Keto Chow note: this is a cup, not a scoop
2 tablespoons coconut flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
1/2 cup granulated sugar-free sweetener erythritol for shaped cookies/allulose for soft baked
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

Scoop Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Whisk together the Keto Chow, coconut flour, and baking powder in a small mixing bowl and set aside.
Place the butter in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until it is light and fluffy.
Beat in the sweetener.
When the sweetener is completely mixed with the butter, add the egg and the vanilla extract.
Beat the mixture until the egg is completely mixed with the butter and sweetener. The mixture will look grainy and separated.
Add half of the dry ingredients to the bowl and blend. When that is fully combined, add the rest of the dry ingredients.
Beat on low speed until it is completely combined and creates a stiff dough. It should start to come together into a ball.
Scoop balls of dough that are about a tablespoon each onto an oiled cookie sheet, spacing them approximately two inches apart.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes until the cookies have puffed slightly and are just beginning to turn golden brown around the edges.

Cut Out Cookies/Cookie Cutter Cookies

To make cut-out cookies: chill the dough for approximately 30 minutes, roll it out between two sheets of oiled parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thickness and cut into shapes with your favorite cookie cutters.
Reroll the scraps and repeat.
Place on an oiled cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes until the cookies are just beginning to turn golden brown around the edges. Don’t overbake or the cookies will become dry.
This will yield approximately 10-12 cookies based on the size of your cookie cutters.

Notes

Please Note: This recipe calls for one measuring cup of Keto Chow powder, not one scoop.

Note about sweeteners: I tested this recipe with both an erythritol blend and with allusose. They both worked and gave good results. They erythritol resulted in a slightly sweeter cookie and is easier to roll out and shape. The allulose yielded a cookie that was a bit more soft and chewy.

Ingredients

Mint Meltaways

8 ounces cream cheese softened
1 serving Chocolate Mint Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
2 tablespoons heavy cream
4 ounces unsalted butter softened
2 tablespoons confectioner’s style sweetener plus extra for serving
1-2 drops peppermint extract or oil optional
1-2 drops green food coloring optional

Chocolate coating

2 tablespoons refined coconut oil
6 ounces sugar-free dark chocolate, chopped into small pieces

Instructions

Mint Meltaways

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer on low speed until it is softened and has spread out in the bowl.
Add the Keto Chow and heavy cream and beat on medium speed until they are fully mixed in.
Add the butter and the sweetener; add the peppermint extract and food coloring now if using.
Beat the mixture for about 30-45 seconds on low speed, then raise the speed to medium-high and whip until the mixture looks light and fluffy.
Scoop out teaspoon sized balls onto a tray lined with waxed paper or parchment paper.
Or prepare an 8” X 6” or similar sized rectangular cake pan by greasing and lining with parchment paper cut to fit the bottom of the pan. Spread the mint mixture into the pan in an even layer.
Chill in the coldest part of your refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. When it has set, turn it out of the pan, remove the parchment paper and cut it into small squares.
If it becomes too soft to work with, place it in the freezer for a few minutes.
To serve, dust the pieces with confectioner’s sweetener or drizzle them with chocolate coating and chill until the chocolate is set.

Chocolate coating

Melt the coconut oil and the chocolate together.
You can melt them in a microwave safe bowl in the microwave or in the top of a double boiler set over gently simmering water.
Stir the mixture to make sure it is mixed completely together.
Drizzle the chocolate over the prepared mints.
You can also use the chocolate coating to make molded mints by following the manufacturer’s directions for filled chocolates from your favorite candy mold.
