Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
Chocolate Cookie Dough
2 cups almond flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup granulated sugar-free sweetener (erythritol or monk fruit blend)
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
S’mores Filling
6 sugar-free marshmallows
1/3 cup sugar-free chocolate chunks or squares
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar-free sweetener until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until a thick dough forms. Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips.
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a thick disc.
Place one marshmallow and a few chocolate chunks in the center of each disc. Carefully wrap the dough around the filling and seal completely, rolling gently into a ball. Make sure no marshmallow is exposed.
Place the cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten the tops.
Bake for 12–15 minutes, until the edges are set but the centers remain soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. The centers will remain gooey while warm.

FAQs
Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?
Coconut flour is much more absorbent, so it cannot be substituted directly. You would need to significantly adjust the liquid ingredients.
Are these cookies keto-friendly?
Yes, when using a keto-approved sweetener and sugar-free chocolate, they are suitable for a keto lifestyle.
Why did my marshmallow leak out?
If the dough does not fully seal around the marshmallow, it may escape during baking. Make sure it is completely enclosed.
Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Yes, you can refrigerate the dough for up to 24 hours before baking.
How do I keep the cookies soft?
Do not overbake them. Remove from the oven when the edges are set and the center is still slightly soft.
Can I use regular marshmallows?
Yes, but the recipe will no longer be sugar-free.
Why are my cookies crumbly?
This can happen if the dough is too dry. Make sure to measure almond flour correctly and use room temperature eggs.
Can I add crushed sugar-free graham crackers?
Yes, adding 2 tablespoons of crushed sugar-free graham-style crackers enhances the classic s’mores flavor.
Do these cookies spread while baking?
They spread slightly but remain thick. Lightly flattening them before baking helps ensure even baking.
Can I double the recipe?
Absolutely. Simply double all ingredients and bake in batches.
