Why you'll love it

Have you heard of the Starbucks secret menu?

It includes off-menu Starbucks goods that have to be ordered a little more creatively. They're often created by Starbucks baristas and Starbucks lovers alike.

This delicious cookie butter latte, inspired by baked goods, is actually a Starbucks secret!

While it's not on the main menu, you can order this drink by asking for a chai latte with:

• Oat milk
• 3 pumps of brown sugar syrup
• 2 pumps of chai
• One shot of blonde espresso

Sounds delicious, right? But with all those high-sugar syrups, this drink is far from keto-friendly.

Don't fret! I have the perfect solution - a scrumptious keto cookie butter latte recipe, complete with ChocZero cookie butter.

This recipe is the perfect addition to a cold, dreary day. It's sweet, flavourful, and gives you a little caffeine boost.

Ingredients

There are only four simple ingredients needed to create this cookie butter latte.

Espresso

This latte includes espresso coffee which adds amazing flavor and a great kick of caffeine!

Unsweetened almond milk

You can use any milk you'd like, but I chose unsweetened almond milk for my latte. It provides a nutty, inoffensive flavor to a latte that doesn't need much dolling up!

ChocZero cookie butter

This ChocZero cookie butter is seriously tasty; it has an amazing flavor that even rivals Trader Joe's cookie butter. And this one is keto!

If you've never tried cookie butter before, it tastes slightly nutty but also, like its namesake, cookies!

Traditional cookie butter is made from Bischoff cookies flavored with brown sugar and tons of delicious spices.

The ChocZero version includes flavors of shortbread, roasted hazelnuts, and cinnamon.

Keto whipped cream

My keto whipped cream recipe is made from heavy whipping cream, vanilla, sugar substitute, and just a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg.

The results are pretty dreamy, if I do say so myself.

Tips

• If you'd prefer a half-sweet cookie butter latte, only use ½ tablespoon cookie butter.
• Save some cookie butter topping - it makes for a delicious drizzle on top!
• Make sure your milk is hot enough that the cookie butter dissolves nicely.

Instructions

This keto cookie butter latte recipe comes together in just a few easy steps! Here's a look at my process. 

Brew the espresso

Brew two shots of espresso. If you don't have an espresso machine, you can make espresso on a stovetop, use a french press, or use an espresso substitute (brewed coffee works great!).

Heat your milk

Microwave six ounces of unsweetened almond milk in a microwave-safe mug. Heat the milk for around one minute or until it's hot and ready!

Infuse cookie butter

Once your milk is heated thoroughly, it's time to add your ChocZero cookie butter.

Add one tablespoon of ChocZero cookie butter to your steamed milk. Use a milk frother to infuse your milk with delicious cookie butter flavor.

Blend until the cookie butter has completely dissolved.

Combine mixtures

Add your brewed espresso to your infused milk, and use your milk frother once again to combine.

Add garnish

Pour your combination into a tall mug and get garnishing.

I recommend adding my homemade whipped cream and an extra drizzle of cookie butter on top for a super decadent hot drink.

Serving suggestions

I typically drink this cookie butter latte in the morning because that's when I like to have my caffeine.

Pair it with a delish keto breakfast like the keto cinnamon rolls or coconut flour porridge for a sweet start to your day.

If you're more of a savory breakfast person, drink this cookie butter latte with a crustless egg quiche or radish keto hashbrowns.

Variations

If you want to switch up the classic recipe, try any of these fun ideas!

• Make it iced – This recipe would taste fabulous as an iced latte. Pour over ice and enjoy!
• Add a drizzle – Add a keto caramel drizzle for an extra bit of sweetness.
• Try salt – Include a sprinkle of coarse sea salt in your latte! This will make the flavors pop in a big way.
• Coconut whipped cream – If you don't opt for my homemade whipped cream recipe, coconut whip cream makes a delicious substitution! The added coconut flavor is super yummy.
