These cookies are GREAT!!! Just starting on THM and really needed a chocolate chip cookie fix. These hit the bill! Thanks SO much for this recipe!
Yay, Kim! Best of luck to you on your THM journey!
Hello Lindsey… I just made these cookies and they are cooling.:) Do you have the carb count for one serving?
I don’t Debbi, sorry. I rarely count macronutrients, actually. There are several nutrition facts calculators online that you could use, though. Good luck!
Hi,
Do you have any sweet recipes made with plain stevia? I’m allergic to Erythritol.
Thank you!

Hi, Liz! I don’t have any dessert recipes that are stevia-sweetened only. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to use only stevia due to the fact that you use so much less in recipes and need to account for the loss of bulk and it often has a bitter flavor on its own. Can you have xylitol?
These sound amazing! We just stumbled on Lily’s chocolate chips and LOVE them! Can’t wait to try this recipe!
I like that you gave an alternative for the chocolate chips. These cookies sound yummy!
Great recipe! When it comes cookies I like them best with chocolate chips!
These look so good! The perfect little treat. I’ve been using Lily’s chocolate chips lately and really like them. So fun to see them in your cookies.
They’re all I use now! I love that I can still have cookies without the sugar!
They look perfect, Lindsey! I love, too, that you have your sweetener, named after you!! 😉 🙂
Ha! Meg Bateman did that! I thought it was perfect!
Chocolate chips are my favorite. Thanks for sharing this
These sound easy! I’m always on the lookout for healthier treats. Thanks. 🙂
They are SUPER easy!
