How do you satisfy a sweet tooth on keto?

There are many ways to satisfy a sweet tooth on keto. You can choose to make so many yummy keto desserts including this delicious chocolate frosty recipe made with just a few ingredients.

Tips to make the best keto frosty recipe

Before you begin, here are a few tips you can use when making the recipe:

1. For the best result, use the right sugar-free peanut butter. Personally, I used my homemade keto peanut butter recipe. But this may not be something that you want to make yourself. My best recommendation, in this case, is to make your life a LOT easier and pick up JUSTIN’S Sugar-Free Peanut Butter here at Amazon.
2. Use chilled heavy cream for this recipe as chilled heavy cream from the fridge is best for whipping. If your heavy cream is at room temperature you may get a liquid frosty.
3. In order to avoid issues when serving, you can transfer the whipped frosty to a zip-lock bag and freeze it for 30-40 minutes. Then cut the end of the zip lock bag and pipe out the chocolate frosty into serving bowls or your mason jars.
