Delicious low carb Snickerdoodle Truffles. These little balls of edible egg-free snickerdoodle dough are easy to make and fun to eat.
My balls have quite a fan following these days. That may sound quite vulgar, but it’s true.
My friends request my balls at all of our get togethers. One friend raves about my balls to almost anyone who will listen. It’s really quite spectacular, how much people love my balls.
And now that I have your mind firmly in the gutter, you must know I am talking about cake balls and cookie balls and sausage balls, that sort of thing. Delicious balls of all kinds, both sweet and savoury.
But it is true that my friends rave about them. They have a particular thing for my low carb Buffalo Chicken Sausage Balls. Bringing those to a Super Bowl Party a few years ago had everyone delightedly joking about how my balls are.
Oh and then there were my keto rum balls for Christmas. Since then, I have brought all sorts of balls to all sorts of parties, and have cemented my reputation as the Queen of Balls. At least in my neighbourhood.
How to Make Keto Snickerdoodle Truffles
However, while my friends like to joke in juvenile fashion about my balls (I swear these are grown-ups, I am not hanging out with a bunch of 12 year old boys!), I prefer to avoid the word if I can.
Truffles is ever so much a more pleasant word, is it not? Cake truffles, cookie truffles, deep dark chocolate truffles – those terms sound much more inviting. So let me be clear that although these low carb Snickerdoodle Cookie Truffles are indeed ball-shaped, they are not to be referred to as balls.
You feel me? Truffles all the way, baby. We hope that might keep one friend in particular from texting me jokes about my balls (yes, Emily, I am talking about you!). Repeat after me…TRUFFLES. KETO COOKIE DOUGH TRUFFLES. Delicious spherical bites of grain-free, sugar-free snickerdoodle cookie dough. And they’re egg-free too.
Come on now, we’re all adults here. Let’s not get silly about this!

January 18, 2018 at 12:35 pmI sooooo wish I was more mature and didn’t actually giggle, every.single.time I read, balls. It is what it is and there are worse things than being reigning Queen of them! Making this weekend – gotta do a test drive for Super Bowl, you know.

Carmela says
January 22, 2018 at 5:50 pmNervous about using this Swerve sweetener but will try this. Need to try to like fake sweeteners since my diabetes diagnoses. 🙁
Carolyn says
January 22, 2018 at 6:29 pmIt’s not a fake sweetener, it’s naturally derived. 🙂
David says
January 23, 2018 at 7:36 pmAm I missing something or do these not require cooking?
Carolyn says
January 23, 2018 at 8:18 pmNope, no cooking. No eggs!
Debbie says
January 24, 2018 at 10:43 amHow should they be stored, that is if you don’t eat them all right away?!
Carolyn says
January 24, 2018 at 10:59 amIn the fridge!
Lana Nolan says
January 24, 2018 at 3:14 pmI made these and didn’t have any cream of tarter….. they are delicious! What is the purpose of the cream of tarter…. I will totally be making these again?!! Thanks for all the amazing recipes 🙂
Carolyn says
January 24, 2018 at 4:55 pmCream of tartar is standard in Snickerdoodle cookies, it gives it a little sour(ish) taste. But without it, they would certainly still be good!
Denise Sloan says
January 30, 2018 at 9:19 pmEasy enough to cut the recipe in half. Really takes away a sweet craving. Very creative!
Marilyn RObson says
February 10, 2018 at 3:06 pmIs the nutrition facts for the entire recipe or for two?
Carolyn says
February 10, 2018 at 6:25 pmPer serving.
Danica says
March 5, 2018 at 6:22 pmI don’t have confectioners, can I use granular instead
Carolyn says
March 6, 2018 at 8:30 amYes but your truffles are going to be awfully gritty.
Pamela Caldwell says
July 31, 2018 at 11:13 amJust put the sugar in a food presser, thats how you make powdered sugar.

February 26, 2019 at 5:58 pmI made these and they’re wonderful. I wanted to confirm that 2 truffles are 1 net carb as shown on the Swerve site. I was surprised they’re so low.
Carolyn says
February 26, 2019 at 7:47 pmI don’t do their nutritional info for them, they do all of that when I write recipes. I honestly think it’s a bit low as well but not all that low. Run the numbers through MyFitnessPal and remember to subtract the Swerve for net. But I bet it’s no more than 2 or 3g.
Cindy says
February 26, 2019 at 8:44 pmThank you!
Cindy says
February 26, 2019 at 7:52 pmOne more question concerning the nutritional value. It shows 10g for swerve. On Carb Manager, would this 10g be enter under sugar alcohols?
Thank you.
Carolyn says
February 26, 2019 at 10:51 pmYes, I suppose so. I just usually add only the calories from Swerve and not the carbs since they don’t affect my blood sugar. But I use a whole different kind of software anyway.
Cindy says
March 2, 2019 at 10:52 amMade them, they helped with my sweet tooth. Better after they were refrigerated overnight. Thank you for another good recipe.
