Introduction to Single Serve Desserts
In the mood for a treat, but don’t want to make an entire batch of dessert? My Chocolate Chip Cookie for One will hit the spot when you’re craving a little something sweet. This is one of the low carb, gluten free desserts I had to create for my friend Deb when she told me she was looking for single serve treats. Her goal? To avoid having lots of tempting food around the house. Like me, Deb knows everything tastes better from scratch, hence this homemade dessert. I’m very excited to show her, and you, how to make your own chocolate chip cookie for one.

Adjusting the Recipe for Keto Diet
If you would like to use this very judiciously on a Keto Diet, it would be better to use a half teaspoon of maple syrup, rather than a whole. I tested it that way and it was delicious, though much more of a shortbread cookie than a classic chocolate chipper.
Low Carb Chocolate Chip Cookie with Almond Flour
Made with a base of almond flour, using only one-half teaspoon of sweetener (maple syrup) it is as low carb as I can go without using ingredients such as erythritol, which I can’t digest.
Measuring Ingredients
When I make this cookie, I weigh out the ingredients on my kitchen scale. As an aside, a kitchen scale is also super handy for making my Homemade Electrolyte Powder. If you don’t weigh your ingredients for this cookie recipe, make sure that your tablespoons of almond flour are very level.
Small Batch Chocolate Chip Cookies
If you’d like to make small batch chocolate chip cookies, simply multiply this recipe by two, three, or four, to make the desired amount of cookies.
Gluten Free Cookie Dough
Looking for a bit of healthy cookie dough to munch on? Confession! I like cookie dough more than the actual cookie! What about you?
Eggless Chocolate Chip Cookies
Most of my cookie recipes are vegan and these eggless chocolate chip cookies are no exception.
Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies
When it comes to chocolate chips, I use Nuts.com mini chocolate chips in this recipe. The mini chips are optimal for good distribution throughout the single serve cookie.
