Low-Carb Chocolate Clusters
I didn’t know what to call these little chocolate bites. They were partly inspired by my Keto Chocolate Caramel Nut Clusters.
But my nut clusters were actually made with nuts. These are made with just cottage cheese, a few other ingredients and covered in keto, friendly chocolate.
I kept the carb count really low with this simple dessert. There are only 4 g carbs in each serving!
And since they’re frozen, I like to pop them into my mouth after a really hard workout. They are so refreshing.
Cottage Cheese Chocolate Bites
I literally used four ingredients to make these tasty, creamy chocolate bites. Are they plain? Yes, they are. And that’s on purpose.
I kept them plain so you can make them any time of year. If you want to make them festive, stir some holiday-themed, low-carb sprinkles into the cottage cheese.
You can also use festive molds. Try this with Christmas ornament chocolate molds! They’re perfect.
Another change that would taste delicious would be to use white chocolate and both red and green food coloring. Then, you can make some of the bites red, and some green!
Low-Carb Chocolates With Caramel
Make a big batch of these cottage cheese chocolate bites at the start of the week and you’ll have a bunch of desserts to eat all week long.
Store them in a freezer safe food storage bag keep them in the freezer for up to six months
Can you store them in the refrigerator? Yes, you can but they might melt a little bit which could be a little messy
If you want them to soften and not be so hard to bite into, I would say the ones the counter for just a few minutes.
Keto Desserts
Whether you eat them once in a while or you enjoy eating sweets every day while on keto, these cottage cheese chocolate clusters will fit in with your diet.
In fact, I have a bunch of other desserts that you can make with them.
Are you madly in love with chocolate like I am? If so, then make my Keto Chocolate Pecan Pie Muffins.
If you like crunchy textures, then make my Crispy Low Carb Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Roll Ups. They remind me of a peanut butter cup.
And I like to eat this Low Carb Cherry Chocolate Cheesecake Fluff with my lunch or as a snack. My Keto White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars are fruity and sweet and for a super rich flavor, make Keto German Chocolate Pecan Pound Cake!
