# Expert Advice:
01 -
- They taste like regular chocolate chip cookies but with only 1 net carb each
- The texture is perfectly chewy, not dry or crumbly like some keto baked goods
02 -
- Almond flour varies by brand, so if your dough feels too wet, add another tablespoon and see if that helps
- These cookies puff slightly in the oven but won't spread much, so flattening them before baking is essential
03 -
- Weighing your almond flour gives more consistent results than using cup measurements
- If your erythritol has a cooling effect, try blending it with a bit of monk fruit for smoother sweetness
