40 Keto Desserts That'll Actually Satisfy Your Sugar Craving

Fudge never gets enough credit around the holidays. Everyone is fixated on the dang cookies. We love cookies, please don’t get us wrong, but come December, we’re already a little tired of baking. Fudge is simpler, chocolatey-er, and just as festive. Plus, it makes a better DIY food gift.

This keto-friendly ice cream is creamy, rich, and just barely sweet. Feel free to up the sweetener a little, but in our opinion, the coconut milk makes is decadent enough.

A very carb-filled, non-keto version of snickerdoodle cookies will always have a special place in our hearts. And while it doesn’t taste quite like the original, we love it just the same. Baking the batch into bars is easier than scooping out a couple dozen individual cookies. They maintain just the right amount of chewiness, and blanketed with the sparkly cinnamon-sweetener mix, each square is every bit as beautiful.
