Keto Cookie Dough Bark

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bark. If you like Cookie Dough you have to try this. It looks like a bark but tastes like cookie dough. Only 5 ingredients to a delicious no-bake keto bark dessert!


This keto bark recipe was a total accident. What I was really trying to do was make caramel without having cream on hand. But my botched caramel sauce became something amazing. Who would’ve thought that adding cream cheese instead of heavy cream would turn caramel sauce into something that looks similar to chocolate bark but taste like cookie dough? I poured the sauce onto a wax paper lined tray, sprinkled on some nuts, coconut, and chocolate shivers I had left over from a different recipe and forgot about it. The next day I remembered my creation and tried it.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet or my sweetener
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1.5 oz cream cheese
  • pinch sea salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar free chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Combine the butter and sweetener in a small saucepan over medium low heat. Cook until light brown and thickened. Remove from the heat.
  2. Stir in the extracts and cream cheese. Stir until the cream cheese is thoroughly incorporated.
  3. Pour onto a small rimmed baking sheet lined with wax paper. Sprinkle the chocolate chips on top.
  4. Put in the fridge to let set. It might take a day or two. Once it is firm you can break it into pieces.


Recipe Notes
Notes on Sweeteners: 

I use my own blend of xylitol, erythritol, and stevia in my recipes. This is twice as sweet as sugar. It is comparable to Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet and Truvia.

To sub in Swerve use 1.5 to 2 times the amount of sweetener called for.

To sub in Pyure or Trim Healthy Mama Super Sweet use half the amount of sweetener called for.

Substitutions will work in most recipes. They may not work in candies, such as caramel.
