Need help modifying cookie recipe
Can someone help me modify this recipe to make it keto?

2/3 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 (3.4 ounce) package instant pudding
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chips
As replacements I have:
Sugar Free pudding
Swerve brown sugar
Swerve granulated sugar
Almond flour or coconut flour
Lily's chocolate chips
Xanthan gum

Are you on Pinterest? I just searched Keto chocolate chip cookies and found so many recipes, including one at https://jenniferbanz.com/keto-skillet-cookie that looks so good I might make it this weekend!

My thoughts: I think you are on the right track. I would use more of the Almond Flour and add a bit of Coconut Flour since the latter does not make as thick a batter as the former. The Lilly's chocolate chips, what kind are you considering? I usually use half and half of the dark and semi-sweet versions.
Just a difference of palates, but I think the Swerve sugar quantities are a bit much, but that is just personal preference.
Also, just for your consideration, am not sure if you have it available where you are at, but at my local supermarket, I recently found Swerve ready-to-go cookie and cake mixes!
Hope they turn out fantastic!馃拑馃憤

Lynsie Re: Chocolate - cool! Re: Xanthan Gum - Not sure if this still stands but a while back I had read to add 1 tsp Xanthan Gum per 1 cup flour. I do not have a recipe where I have ever used more than a teaspoon, come to think of it, lol. Just use a teaspoon then re-evaluate for the next time you use the recipe.馃榾
