  • 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.

Keto Chow Creamy Mushroom Soup

Keto Creamy Mushroom Soup

Creamy, comforting, savory and reminiscent of the classic cream of mushroom soup I grew up with. This soup comes together in just minutes but tastes like it’s been carefully simmered for hours. Its elegant enough to serve for a special occasion and satisfying enough for a day of activities. Trust me, you will want to keep this in regular rotation.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 whole white mushrooms sliced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves plucked from the stem
  • 1 teaspoon fresh parsley minced
  • 1 whole bay leaf
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 14 ounces mushroom broth
  • 1 serving Savory Chicken Soup Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
  • 1/2 cup crème fraiche, sour cream, or heavy cream

Instructions

    Img 2398
  • Add the mushrooms, herbs, salt and pepper to the pan.
    Img 2399
  • Cook until most of the moisture has evaporated from the mushrooms and they begin to turn golden brown.
    Img 2417
  • Carefully add the mushroom broth to the pan and bring it to a simmer.
    Img 2412
  • When the broth comes to a simmer, remove the pan from the heat, discard the bay leaf, and whisk in the Keto Chow.
  • Then mix in the crème fraiche or cream.
  • Serve piping hot, garnished with more parsley, if desired.
    Img 2454
  • You can puree the soup with an immersion blender if you want to drink it from a travel mug.

Notes

Yield: Approximately 20 ounces of soup
The fresh herbs really make this soup special and are worth seeking out. But if you don’t have fresh herbs you can substitute 1/4 teaspoon each dried thyme and dried parsley instead. You can use fresh or dried bay leaves interchangeably.
Want an even heartier soup? Add a couple ounces of cooked, crumbled sage flavored sausage like pork or turkey breakfast sausage

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!

Ingredients

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.
    Img 4128
  • 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.
    Img 4152
  • 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.
    Img 4179
  • 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.
    Soft Baked Keto Chow Cookies and Cream Cookies
  • 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.
