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!

Hi Carolyn, these look delicious. How long will they keep in the fridge? Can you freeze them?
Carolyn says
As long as your ingredients are fresh, they should last several weeks. In the freezer, they can last months.
Marla says
I don’t know but I like the smirk I get when I think of the word… er… Truffles! The minute you posted this I printed off the recipe and took it into the kitchen and made 1/2 a recipe. 2 is just perfect. Thank you for your creative recipes!
staci says
My girls and I loved them. If you are a cookie dough fan give these a try!!!
Carolyn says
Glad to hear it!
Cindy says
One 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
Yes, 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
Made them, they helped with my sweet tooth. Better after they were refrigerated overnight. Thank you for another good recipe.
Cindy says
I 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
I 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
Thank you!

Danica says
I don’t have confectioners, can I use granular instead
Carolyn says
Yes but your truffles are going to be awfully gritty.
Pamela Caldwell says
Just put the sugar in a food presser, thats how you make powdered sugar.
Marilyn RObson says
Is the nutrition facts for the entire recipe or for two?
Carolyn says
Per serving.
Denise Sloan says
Easy enough to cut the recipe in half. Really takes away a sweet craving. Very creative!
Lana Nolan says
I 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
Cream of tartar is standard in Snickerdoodle cookies, it gives it a little sour(ish) taste. But without it, they would certainly still be good!
Debbie says
How should they be stored, that is if you don’t eat them all right away?!
Carolyn says
In the fridge!
David says
Am I missing something or do these not require cooking?
Carolyn says
Nope, no cooking. No eggs!
Carmela says
Nervous about using this Swerve sweetener but will try this. Need to try to like fake sweeteners since my diabetes diagnoses. 🙁
Carolyn says
It’s not a fake sweetener, it’s naturally derived. 🙂
Carole S. says
Oh, my…these look ridiculously good! Thanks for the recipe!!
Anita says
I don’t see a link to the recipe…..even at the bottom of the page.
Carolyn says
Above the final photo…BIG letters saying “Please see my…”
Donna Almanza says
I have looked for the recipe and cannot find it, is there a print button? I do see the BIG letters saying “Please see my…” but not print button.
Carolyn says
You have to click that link and it will take you to where the recipe lives on the Swerve website.
Amanda says

Karen says
I 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.
