Keto Samoa Bars

0

Let’s be sincere, Samoas are one of the best Lady Scout cookies. The wonderful mixture of toasted coconut, caramel, chocolate, and shortbread is a true dream. The perfect information of all is that these Samoa bars are keto-approved! Don’t be concerned, in case you do not eat keto however just like the sound of this recipe, we have Samoa Dessert Lasagna, Frozen Samoa Pie, Samoa Brownies, and Samoa Cheesecake Bars for you. (And hey, Samoa Martinis are fairly nice, too.)

Utilizing Swerve (an erythritol-based sweetener that is keto-friendly) implies that the caramel is a lot simpler to make than the common, non-keto model. Simply comply with the timing within the recipe intently to get it to the fitting consistency. Then, you may fold in a boatload of toasted coconut to make the bars Samoa-worthy. Lastly, the no-bake coconut-caramel fills the almond flour-based shortbread crust and you may prime the entire thing off with a drizzle of chocolate. It is merely heavenly.
