Steps by step instructions
How to make this Sugar Free Keto Pudding?
STEP 1: In a medium stainless steel bowl mix together the whipping cream, vanilla and 1 tablespoon of powdered erythritol with an electric mixer on high. Whip until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
STEP 2: In another medium stainless steel bowl mix the cream cheese, cocoa powder, powdered erythritol and hazelnut extract on high. Mix until creamed together and everything is well combined.
STEP 3: Fill the bottom of two tumbler glasses with a layer of crushed hazelnuts. I bought whole hazelnuts and blitzed them in the blender until they were coarsely chopped the size of pebbles.
Then add a layer of the chocolate cream cheese halfway and then a layer of the whipped cream and top with toasted coconut flakes. Chill in the fridge for about an hour and enjoy.

Recipe tips
Top Tip: use powdered erythritol to avoid the granular texture you will get from regular erythritol. If you don't have powdered, simply blend erythritol in the blender to make it powdered.
Sweeteners: Swap out the erythritol for your favourite sweeteners like monk fruit, allulose or even sugar free flavoured coffee syrups can be used.
- Set in the fridge: Chill the sugar free chocolate keto pudding in the fridge before serving.
- Serving: serve with some low carb berries on the side or a low carb double chocolate cookie.
- Storage: Store in the glass and cover with plastic wrap in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Recipe variations
This delicious sugar free pudding can be made with a few variations, here are just a few ideas.
- Nuts - use other nuts like crushed almonds, walnuts or cashews instead of hazelnuts. Have a nut allergy? Leave the nuts altogether and use sunflower or pumpkin seeds.
- Caramel - swap out the toasted coconut flakes and use this Caramel Drizzle recipe to top this delicious low carb pudding.
- Chocolate Chips - another delicious substitute for coconut flakes are sugar-free chocolate chips or low-carb chocolate chip cookies.

Question: is there a difference between cocoa and cacao powder? Your ingredients say one and your directions say another. Just wondering. .thank you
ihackeddiabetes
Oh yes there is a difference. Thanks for letting me know, it was a typo in the instructions and I have made the edit to indicate cacao instead of cocoa. Cacao powder is known to have a higher antioxidant content than cocoa, and has been linked to a variety of benefits.

This looks and sounds absolutely wonderful. However, my numbers came out quite a bit different from yours. My calories were just under 600 and my carbs were net 14. I logged everything very carefully into My Fitness Pal and double-checked. I wish I knew how you got yours so low. Nevertheless, I plan to make this tonight.

Hi Stacey. I used the nutrition calculator at verywellfit.com but just tried a different nutrition calculator and noticed a difference as well. I’m going to spend some time on it this weekend and edit if needed. Thanks for letting me know.
Stacey Allison
My pleasure. Even with the current calories and carbs which I'm getting, it sounds totally worth it for a delicious dessert. I only indulge once a week and this is straight up my alley. Thanks for sharing.
