Remember back around 2006 or so when "cake mix cookies" became a 'thing'? I've posted many different versions of them that I made of the years but last month (or was it two months ago now? Time goes by so fast!) I made them using a keto cake mix. Because... why not try it? Right? It was just an idea I had one day so I did it!
The end result was good and was obviously simple. I used a keto cake mix and had sugar free sprinkles on hand too so I made a "Keto Funfetti Cookie" version. In the end, when we are doing strict keto they are a good option but I admit I do get tired of almond flour based cookies - which is why I've been posting some of my King Arthur Keto Flour cookies - because sometimes I need to mix it up a bit.
The basic "CAKE MIX COOKIE" recipe:
1 dry cake mix
1/3 c oil
2 eggs
1/3 c oil
2 eggs
Mix, form balls, bake at 375 for about 8-9 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet a minute or two and remove to cool on a rack.
FOR THE KETO VERSION: Because the Swerve Sweets cake mix is only about half the size of a regular cake mix, I 'halved' the recipe and used 1 egg and less oil. I also added a teaspoon of vanilla. After mixing the batter, stir in your sugar free sprinkles.
Form balls, bake on parchment at 375 for about 8-9 minutes until set. Let cool on the parchment for a few minutes until they are set, and then cool completely on racks.
