Keto Vanilla Cake Pops

These Easy-To-Make Gluten Free & Keto Vanilla Cake Pops are Delicious Little Balls of Moist Vanilla Cake, Dipped in Chocolate. They’re made from scratch, with no Cake Mix or Canned Frosting. It’s the perfect recipe to make with your kids or family.

To make these tasty Keto Vanilla Cake Pops you start by blending the eggs and cream cheese In a blender until very well blended. Add the protein powder, coconut flour, vanilla and baking powder to the blender. Blend until fully combined. Grease the bottom and sides of a cake pan with butter, then pour the cake batter into the pan. Use a spoon to spread the batter evenly in the pan. Then bake for 18 – 20 minutes or until a tooth pic comes out clean. Set aside to cool.

In a small bowl mix the cream cheese, heavy cream and sweetener. Then crumble half of the cooled cake into a large mixing bowl. Make sure the cake is completely crumbled. Add 2 Tbsp of the frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until completely combined. Cover a plate or tray with parchment paper. Then make small 2 Tbsp sized balls out of the cake mixture. Place the balls onto the covered plate. Then go back and mix the second half of the cake the same way. Place the cake balls in the freezer for 10 -15 minutes or in the fridge for an hour.

Melt the low carb chocolate with the coconut oil. Then gently make holes in the cake pop with the stick or a tooth pick. Dip the tip of the stick in the chocolate then poke them into the cake pops. Place in the fridge for a few minutes or until the chocolate sets. Dip the cake pops in the chocolate and place it back on the parchment paper to set, or if you have a piece of styrofoam you can place the cake pops upright poked into the styrofoam. Placing the finished cake pops in the fridge for a few minutes will help the set faster.

Keto Vanilla Cake Pops

Today I’m showing you how to make Easy Keto Vanilla Cake Pops without a cake mix. These little nuggets of cake dipped in Chocolate have become a huge trend and you don’t have to miss out on them because of dietary restrictions. The recipe is Gluten and Sugar Free and is Naturally Low carb and Keto. The best part is they’re 100 % Kid Approved.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

If you haven’t heard of The ketogenic diet (often called keto), it’s a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

Keto Vanilla Cake Pops

“These Easy to make Gluten Free & Keto Vanilla Cake Pops are Delicious Little Balls of Moist Vanilla Cake, Dipped in Chocolate. They’re made from scratch, with no Cake Mix or Canned Frosting. It’s the perfect recipe to make with your kids or family.”

Ingredients

For the Cake:

6 Eggs

1/2 Cup Cream Cheese

1/3 Cup Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (Low Carb)

1/3 Cup + 3 Tbsp Coconut Flour

1 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

1 Tsp Vanilla

1 Tsp Baking Powder

For the Frosting:

3 Tbsp Cream Cheese

3 Tbsp Heavy Cream

1 Tbsp Powdered Sweetener (Swerve)

For the Coating:

1 1/2 Cups Low Carb Chocolate (Lily’s)

1 1/2 Tbsp Coconut Oil

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325 F. In a blender, mix the eggs and cream cheese until very well blended. Add the protein powder, coconut flour, vanilla and baking powder to the blender. Blend until fully combined.

2. Grease the bottom and sides of a cake pan with butter, then pour the cake batter into the pan. Use a spoon to spread the batter evenly in the pan. Then bake for 18 – 20 minutes or until a tooth pic comes out clean. Set aside to cool.

3. In a small bowl mix the cream cheese, heavy cream and sweetener. Then crumble half of the cooled cake into a large mixing bowl. Make sure the cake is completely crumbled. Add 2 Tbsp the frosting to the crumbled cake and mix until completely combined.

4. Cover a plate or tray with parchment paper. Then make small 2 Tbsp balls out of the cake mixture. (Firmly Press into a ball shape then gently press into a nice round shape with your fingers. If they crack, gently press back together.) Place the balls onto the covered plate. Then go back and mix the second half of the cake the same way. Place the cake balls in the freezer for 10 -15 minutes or in the fridge for an hour.

5. Melt the low carb chocolate with the coconut oil. Then gently make holes in the cake pop with the stick or a tooth pick. Dip the tip of the stick in the chocolate then poke them into the cake pops. Place in the fridge for a few minutes or until the chocolate sets.

6. Dip the cake pops in the chocolate and place it back on the parchment paper to set, or if you have a piece of styrofoam you can place the cake pops upright poked into the styrofoam. Placing the finished cake pops in the fridge for a few minutes will help the set faster.

Recipe Notes:

– Go Easy on The Frosting. To get a nice cake like texture you don’t want the balls to be too wet. Using only a small amount of frosting will help keep the proper texture.

– They need to be cold but not frozen (or too cold). The cake pops can expand and crack when dipped in the hot chocolate, if they’re too cold. 10 -15 minutes in the freezer should be more than enough time.

– Let the Chocolate cool slightly before dipping the cake pops. Just as they crack when the balls are too cold, they can also expand and crack if your chocolate is too hot. Letting it sit for a few minutes first will help.

– Using a deep narrow cup for dipping the cake pops in the chocolate will help get the cake pops deep enough to submerge them completely.

– Use a styrofoam holder or a box with holes poked in it, to hold the cake pops upright. This will help to keep a nice round shape. They can also be placed upside down on a parchment paper lined plate if needed.

– Using a small ice cream scoop to scoop out the cake balls will help keep equal portions.

– If the cake pops crack while rolling just gently press them back together with your fingers.

– The cake can be made ahead and saved until your ready to make the cake pops. You can even make the undipped cake pops a day or two ahead of time, then dip them in the chocolate before serving.

– You can usually find cake pop sticks at any cake supply or craft store. If you can’t find any you can replace the stick with a skewer or just make cake balls instead of cake pops.

– Keep the Keto Cake Pops in the fridge until ready to serve.

Gluten Free Vanilla Pudding Cookies

Gluten Free Vanilla Pudding Cookies

These Soft and Chewy Gluten Free Vanilla Pudding Cookies are The PERFECT Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie!!!! These Tried, Tested and True Cookies are Loaded with Chocolate Chunks and Subtle Vanilla Flavour. The Best Part is, These Incredibly Easy-To-Make Cookies can be Made in Under 30 Minutes!

To make these delicious Gluten Free Vanilla Pudding Cookies, you use a large mixing bowl to mix the margarine with the white sugar and brown sugar. Then stir in the Pudding Mix and the egg. Then mix until it’s well combined. Stir in the rice flour, potato starch and baking soda. Then stir in the chocolate chunks. Using a spoon make 1 inch balls and place onto a lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake for 10 -12 minutes. Remove From the pan immediately.

Gluten Free Vanilla Pudding Cookies

These soft and chewy Gluten Free Vanilla Pudding Cookies are really easy to make. I always use margarine instead of butter, when making cookies. That and the Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix are the Secrets to the Perfect Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies! If you only have butter on hand, it will work too. Just be sure to combine it with the sugar extra well. These Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies will stiffen up if left out but putting them in an air tight container will make them soft and chewy. I use 70 % Cocao Chocolate Chunks but you can use whichever Chocolate you prefer.

One of the reasons that I use rice flour in most of my recipes is because its so inexpensive. You can find it for $1.00 a bag at Asian Supermarkets or in the import sections at Larger Grocery Stores. It’s also very versatile and doesn’t have a weird after taste like a lot of other gluten free flours do.

Note: Rice Flour can vary from brand to brand. I’ve found that measurements can be different depending on the brand you’re using. The Thai brand which has red writing on the bag is ground finer and can take more than the Indian rice flour that I get at Superstore. Both brands work wonderfully but there is a slight difference in the measurements, as I mentioned. Because of this, I like to add the flour a little a time until the consistency is right.

If you’re looking for another delicious Gluten Free Recipe for the Holidays, try these delicious Gluten Free Blueberry Cheesecake Tarts. They’re made with an easy to make Gluten Free Shortbread Cookie Cup Tart and are topped with a light and fluffy No Bake Cheesecake Topping. They’re sure to impress even you non gluten free friends and family.

Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow Pops

March 19, 2018 by officially gluten free Leave a Comment

Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow Pops

My Family and I had so much fun making these Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow Pops for Easter. Not only are they Super Cute and Customizable but they’re so Delicious. My Son lit up with excitement as he Tasted the First Bite. They’re sooooo Good!!! he yelled. I definitely agree, they’re Amazing.

They’re really easy to make and only take a few ingredients. All you have to do is melt down the Marshmallows and mix in the Powdered Sugar. Knead the mixture for a few minutes until its smooth and no longer sticky. Then Roll it out using a little extra Powdered Sugar.

Use a Cookie Cutter to Cut Out the Shapes. Rinsing the cookie cutter in hot water after every 2nd or 3rd Cut, helps to keep the shapes from sticking to it. Place the shapes onto a tray or plate and place in the freezer for 20 minutes.

Using a Double Broiler or Microwave, Melt the Chocolate and or Chocolate Coating. Adding a tsp or two of Coconut Oil or Vegetable Shortening to help it harden. Dip and Decorate the Marshmallow Shapes with the Melted Chocolate Coating. Then Place in the freezer for a few minutes or until set.

Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow Pops

These delicious Gluten Free Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow Pops are the Perfect Easter Treat to Make with the Kids. My son loved getting to decorate them and of course, he loved eating them even more. I’d be lying if said he was the only one that Loved them. They’re definitely my favourite treat too. I love how customizable they are. You can make any shape or flavour, for any occasion.

I didn’t add any colouring or flavouring to this recipe but I did use some when I made these Marshmallow Peppermint Patties. They’re incredibly Soft and Chewy, with just a hint of mint.

There are so many other flavour combinations I’m excited to try. I think the first one will be Rootbeer Flavoured and after that will be Liquorice or Banana. I already have a cookie cutter for every occasion so making these delicious Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow Pops again, is definitely in our future. I can already picture the cute Christmas and Halloween Marshmallow Treats we’ll make.

Chocolate Dipped Marshmallow Pops

Ingredients

1 Tbsp Butter

25 Large Marshmallows

1 1/4 Cups Powdered Sugar

3 Cups Chocolate Coating

Directions

1. Melt the butter in a large pot over low heat. Use a spatula and coat the sides of the pot with the butter.

2. Add the marshmallows to the pot and stir periodically until they start to melt. Once they have almost all melted, stir until smooth.

3. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 of a cup of the Powdered sugar. Quickly stir until combined then scrape onto 1/2 cup powdered sugar spread onto the counter.

4. Knead the mixture, mixing in the last 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, for a few minutes or until it is smooth and no longer sticky.

5. Melt the chocolate in a double broiler or in the microwave.

6. Roll out the marshmallow mixture on a powdered sugar covered counter. Use a cookie cutter to cut out the shapes. Place the shapes onto a tray or plate and place in the freezer for 10 – 15 minutes. Use a small amount of the melted chocolate or coating to fasten the sticks to the shapes. The return to the freezer for a few more minutes.

7. Dip the shapes into the chocolate, making sure to completely cover them. Scrape off the extra chocolate from the bottom and transfer on to a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Then put them into the refrigerator for 15 – 20 minutes.

Tip: To make a homemade Chocolate Coating use 3 Cups Chocolate + 2 Tsp Coconut Oil.

Two Bite Cherry Brownies

February 10, 2018 by officially gluten free Leave a Comment

Gluten Free Two Bite Cherry Brownies

Two Bite Cherry Brownies

My family loved having these Rich, Chocolatey Gluten Free Two Bite Cherry Brownies as a treat to celebrate Valentine’s Day. They’re incredibly soft and are reminiscent of Black Forrest Cake which happens to be my all time favourite Cake. They’re the perfect for treat for Brightening Someones Day.

The best part about this recipe is it’s so Quick and Easy to Make. All you need is a Mini Muffin Pan, Brownie Batter and 24 Cherries. I used frozen Cherries because they’re out of season at the moment and I already had a bag of them in the freezer. I found the frozen ones worked well and are also much cheaper than fresh ones. The best part is they’re already pitted. If using fresh Cherries instead, you have to pit them first which can be a bit messier and more time consuming.

This recipe for Two Bite Cherry Brownies can also be made as a Flourless Brownie. This makes them more of fudge like texture. I added a Half of a Cup of Rice Flour to make them a little bit Firmer and Cake like. If you like you could switch the Rice Flour for Potato, Corn or Tapioca Starch.

If you’re looking for another Easy and Delicious Gluten Free Dessert, try this Gluten Free Baked Apple Fritter Recipe. You won’t believe how easy the recipe is. It uses a simple sweetened Gluten Free Tea Biscuit Dough and Canned Apple Pie Filling. The recipe can be thrown together in half an hour.

They’re made with Half Chocolate Banana and Half Plain Banana muffin batter and of course they’re Gluten Free. This easy recipe makes 12 muffins but if you like your muffins to be extra large, just fill 9 of the muffin cups instead of 12.

My family absolutely loves Bananas, so we usually have an abundance of them at our house. They get over ripe so quickly and I don’t like trowing them away, so instead I put them in the freezer until I’m ready to make these incredible muffins or our other favorite Gluten Free Banana Bread. Lucky for us it’s usually at least once a week. I hope you enjoy them as much as my family does.

Ingredients

3 Ripe Bananas

3/4 Cup White Sugar

4. In a separate bowl mix half of the muffin batter with the melted chocolate. Mix until well combined.

5. Spoon the batter into a paper lined or greased muffin tin, 1 tbsp of plan muffin batter, then 1 tbsp of chocolate and so on until full to the top.

White Chocolate Candy Cane Macaroons

December 2, 2015 by officially gluten free 19 Comments

White Chocolate Candy Cane Macaroons

It’s Christmas Cookie Season and I’m really excited to share these Gluten Free White Chocolate Candy Cane Macaroons with you. They’re my new favorite Christmas Cookie and they only take 5 ingredients to make. They’re a deliciously chewy Coconut Macaroon Dipped in White Chocolate, then dipped in Crushed Candy Canes.

To make these delicious White Chocolate Candy Cane Macaroons, you use a large mixing bowl to mix the coconut and sweetened condensed milk. In a separate bowl whip the egg white until stiff, then fold it into the coconut mixture. Spoon 1 inch balls onto a lightly greased or parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Bake for 15 -17 minutes. Then, melt the White Chocolate in a double boiler. You can also melt it in the microwave for 30 sec at a time, stiring in between. Dip the bottoms of the baked macaroons into the white chocolate. Then dip them into the crushed candy cane. Place back onto parchment paper. Put the finished macaroons into the fridge for 20 minutes.

White Chocolate Candy Cane Macaroons

The White Chocolate and Candy Cane go perfectly together, making an already tasty Cookie even more irresistible. They’re really easy to make and have no flour of any kind. I decided to make these macaroons in a smaller batch. Most Macaroon recipes make 4 or 5 dozen, which I felt was to many. I ended up with 30 Macaroons. If you need more than that you could easily double the recipe. I hope you enjoy them as much as my family did.

Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread

It’s Zucchini season and my garden is overflowing with them. This Gluten Free Double Chocolate Zucchini Bread is a delicious way to use them up. If you don’t have a garden, I’m sure you know someone who has more than know what to do with. I usually make Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins with them but I decided to go with something a little different this time and I’m so glad I did. The Zucchini made the bread extra moist without over powering the taste. It’s a great way to sneak some Zucchini into the diet of a picky eater.

Rice Crispy Caramilk Bars

Rice Crispy Caramilk Bars

These Gluten Free Rice Crispy Caramilk Bars are a delicious Brown Rice, Rice Crispy Treat stuffed with Caramilk Chocolate Bars and smothered in Chocolate. They’re more fun than a regular rice crispy treat and are still really easy to make. They taste so good, they have me wondering, what else could I stuff into them. I think I’ll try Three Musketeers, Reece’s Peanut Butter Cups or Skor next time I make them.

Ingredients

2 1/2 Tbsp Butter

50 Large Marshmallows

6 Cups (Gluten Free) Rice Crispies

2 Caramilk Chocolate Bars

1 Cup Chocolate Chips

Directions

1. Grease a 9″ x 9″ pan with 1/2 Tbsp of butter.

2. Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler. I use a metal or glass bowl on top of a pot of boiling water. Or you can melt in the microwave, in a microwave safe bowl for 30 seconds at a time stirring the chocolate each time.

2.In a large pot over medium – low heat, melt 2 Tbsp of butter. Use a spatula and cover the sides of the pot with the butter.

3. Add the Marshmallows to the pot and stir until completely melted. Add the rice crispies 2 cups at a time and stir until completely combined.

4. Press 1/2 of the marshmallow rice crispy mixture into the bottom of your pan. Break the Caramilk bars into pieces, then press the pieces into the rice crispies about 1 inch apart. Cover with remaining marshmallow rice crispy mixture and press down with wet fingers or a spoon, until flat.

5. Pour the melted chocolate over the marshmallow and rice crispies. Use a spatula to smooth out the chocolate.

6. Place the bars into the fridge for at least 1 hour. Then cut into slices.
