73 Keto Chocolate Recipes Guaranteed To Please Any Chocoholic!

Did you know the word chocolate originally meant “food of the gods”? And I can see why! Although it often gets a bad reputation as an unhealthy treat, cocoa beans (the base of all chocolate) are actually chock full of vitamins and nutrients.

But the health benefits don’t stop there.  Registered Dietitian Toby Amidor, RD, CDN says, “The cocoa bean…is a rich source of the antioxidant theobromine, which helps reduce inflammation and may help lower blood pressure.”

But not all chocolate is created equal. I always opt for dark chocolate, which uses a higher percentage of cocoa beans, and has been shown to contain healthy compounds linked to improved heart health! Best of all, dark chocolate and many cocoa powders are fine to have on a ketogenic diet!

We’ve put together a list to showcase the best ways to enjoy this dark rich treat on a Keto diet. Whether you’re looking for that once-in-awhile sweet treat or just a way to enjoy the healthy benefits, we have you covered! From easy-to-make fat bombs to brownies to ice cream, this list is sure to satisfy even the most dedicated chocoholic!

Check out one delicious chocolate recipe to start you off:

If you’re trying to avoid chocolate but find yourself getting cravings for the taste, try substituting carob instead.  Carob is caffeine-free and lacks bitterness, making it an easy substitute in the recipes below.

Ketogenic Chocolates & Fat Bombs

Keto Chocolate Coconut Cups

– Keto Summit

They give you the perfect hit to satisfy any craving and look so good that you are bound to impress with these, even though they are quite easy to make and totally ketogenic.

Why not serve these next time someone has a birthday party at home!

Dark Chocolate Truffles (Contains Dairy)

– Brown Eyed Baker

Ingredients: heavy cream, bittersweet chocolate, butter.

Truffles like these ones are so rich and unctuous and are a really impressive gift to make for a friend or to provide as a treat with coffee when folks drop round. Although they do not involve using refined sugars, they do contain quite a high level of dairy product, so on the keto diet, we suggest you make these only as an occasional treat and not for every day.

This low carb snack is best kept in the freezer then left out for a few minutes before serving.

Baked Goods

Keto Chocolate Brownies

– Keto Summit

Ingredients: coconut oil, eggs, vanilla extract, almond flour, unsweetened cacao powder, coconut cream, Swerve confectioner’s sweetener or stevia.

The ketogenic brownies in this recipe are quite thick, so I would suggest cutting them into smaller pieces, but they are so good that you could just treat yourself and go for it! If you can leave them to cool, which can be difficult as they smell amazing, then they won’t be crumbly. If you like toppings on your brownies, then dust them with cocoa powder or cinnamon for an extra hit of flavor.

This is a versatile recipe too – try adding peppermint instead of vanilla for a hint of mint, or add some chopped nuts to serve. Remember to remove the gelato from the freezer for 20 minutes before serving to soften it a bit.

Paleo & Keto Chocolate Pudding-For-1

– Gnom Gnom

Ingredients: full-fat coconut milk, cocoa powder or raw cacao, Swerve or xylitol, avocado, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, kosher salt.

The first thing you will notice about this amazing pudding is the rich and luxurious creamy texture which it gets from the avocado. Yes, this is a completely dairy-free recipe but it doesn’t taste like it! This would be great to serve for dessert at a dinner party, spooned into fancy glasses and garnished with fresh berries.

– Headbangers Kitchen

Ingredients: chocolate (90% or 100% or bakers chocolate), heavy whipping cream, egg yolk, erythritol, vanilla extract, salt.

This is another pudding recipe that uses egg yolk to set the consistency of the dessert. It gives the pudding a rich and glossy feel and it is so smooth that it just slides over. It has a luxurious feel and would make an impressive dessert to serve on a special occasion. You can serve this in a pretty glass as it is or decorate with fresh berries.
