If you’re trying to cut down on sugar but want to incorporate a yummy treat once in a while, you’ll want to bookmark this delicious recipe for sugar-free chocolate chip cookies.

Need a recommendation for sugar-free chocolate chips?
I used Russell Stover chocolate baking chips from the Stevia-sweetened line of chocolate candy, and we really enjoyed them in these soft chocolate chip cookies! The taste was pretty much comparable to traditional chocolate chips I thought, so why not make small swaps like this when you can?
Also, this recipe is based on the back of their bag of chocolate chips but I used my favorite sweeteners and nuts to make it perfect for my family.
Here’s how to make the best sugar-free chocolate chip cookies:
- I’ve tried quite a few sugar-free sweeteners but have my favorites when it comes to sweetening dessert recipes. I have been loving Lakanto classic granulated monk fruit as a stand-in for traditional sugar and it does a great job in baking.
- A really great brown sugar substitute to try is Swerve brown. I use it all the time on our keto site Hip2keto.com when sweetening recipes. It’s so good.
- These cookies are a bit more fragile than traditional, so I recommend baking them on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet to avoid sticking.
- If you’re wanting both a low carb and sugar-free cookie, check out the keto chocolate chip cookie recipe we have on Hip2Keto.com that uses almond flour to cut down on carbs.

Now for the real taste test!
My kids are generally picky about sugar-free baking and keto baking, but these have their stamp of approval! I loved them as well, and it was so hard not to just eat the cookie dough! 😂 They taste super similar to a regular sugar-filled chocolate chip cookie.
We loved these soft and sweet sugar-free monk fruit chocolate chip cookies, and I really think your family will, too!
Try using sugar-free chocolate chips in these no-bake oatmeal energy bites!
That is so wrong. Cookies should be sweet and full of sugar. I like the monk sugar in my coffee in the morning though sometimes I use stevia too.
Some of us with diabetes can’t have that much sugar. I’m so used to the taste of erythritol that I don’t miss the sugar. I’m just happy I can eat chocolate chip cookies!
Thanks for this recipe! I plan to give it a try. As a 33 yr Type 1 Diabetic, it’s always great to find a few recipes that I can use & still try to stick with my plan! I love cookies 🍪 but know that I can’t eat them, even only occasionally!
Oh good, I hope this was helpful and that you enjoy them!
If you are diabetic the 2 cups of flour can’t possibly be good for you. Maybe try a low carb cookie recipe for diabetics.
Are these soft and chewy? Or hard
Dry and cakelike
Okay my son has sugar intolerance but can do regular flour. He loves these ( age 11) I think they are pretty great too, actually a little cakier than regular cookies which is not a problem as far as I am concerned, they are on point!
Oh I’m so happy – thanks for sharing!
I took one cup of flour and put in half a cup of almond flour and half a cup of coconut flour….they were very good!!!!
These were cake like and disappointing. I have yet to find a sugar free chocolate chip cookie that has the same consistency as chocolate chip cookies made with sugar. Cake like and dry. Dont waste your time on this recipe
Loved these cookies!!! I used 1/2 the butter and substituted the other half with unsweetened applesauce. Instead of all purpose flour, I used the keto wheat flour. They were good, cake like but I like that in a chocolate chip cookie. Would definitely make again!!
I made these today. Easy to make and tasted great. I even gave one to the a/c tech who was here today and he came back and asked for another!
So happy to hear these were a hit, Amy! 🍪❤️
These no bake cookie dough bites are another option. She has about 4 different versions.
