White Chocolate Blondies Recipe - Low Carb, Keto, THM S, Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, Dairy-Free, Sugar-Free
A delicious FOUR ingredient white chocolate blondie? Seriously? Yes! I even surprised myself with this recipe. I had a big bag of raw cacao butter that was just sitting in the pantry and staring at me. I love to use it in peppermint white hot chocolate in the winter but it's July. I'm not really feeling that hot chocolate craving at the moment.
But a white chocolate blondie? I'll eat one of those any time of the year.
My raw cacao butter comes in oddly sized lumps. They definitely aren't aren't the easiest thing to measure for recipes. So I finely chopped my raw cacao butter and then measured it. I just kept going until I ended up with 1 cup of finely chopped pieces. Add those back to the food processor with the other ingredients, pulse until smooth, and pour into the baking pan. Super easy.
Raw cacao butter is a bit pricey. BUT if you look at the price of quality sugar-free chocolate it is comparable, if not cheaper.
If you look closely at the batter you can see the finely chopped cacao butter. As the blondies cook it melts and soaks into the almond flour the way chocolate does in brownies. It helps give these white chocolate blondies a smooth texture and rich flavor.
What else can you make with raw cacao butter once you bite the bullet and buy some?
I cut my white chocolate blondies into 16 small pieces but as I was calculating the nutrition I realize I didn't have to. Even with 9 big pieces these only have 2 carbs and under 200 calories. Raw cacao butter really is a superfood!

📖 Recipe
Servings: 9
Calories: 191
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup raw cacao butter (5 oz)
- 3 egg whites
- ⅓ cup Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or see alternatives in recipe notes)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350. Spray an 8 x 8 baking dish with cooking spray.
- Add the ingredients to a food processor. Pulse until smooth. Pour into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 35-40 min or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
Notes
Sugar-Free White Chocolate - I developed this recipe before sugar-free white chocolate was readily available. If you want to use that in place of the raw cacao only use half the amount of sweetener listed.
Notes on Sweeteners:
I use my own blend of xylitol, erythritol, and stevia in my recipes. This is twice as sweet as sugar. It is comparable to Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet and Truvia.
To sub in Swerve or Lakanto Monk Fruit use 1.5 times the amount of sweetener called for.
To sub in Pyure or Trim Healthy Mama Super Sweet use half the amount of sweetener called for.
Substitutions will work in most recipes. They may not work in candies, such as caramel.

Hi there, is the nutritional information listed for the entire recipe or per serving? thanks 🙂
Taryn says
Per serving.
Corrie says
Do you melt the cocoa butter before blending?
Taryn says
No. You just want it finely chopped.
Laura Maurillo says
I wanted to like these. I really did. I followed the recipe to the t with the authors’ sweetener blend. They were crumbly yet greasy, though the flavor was ok.
Taryn says
Did you chill them? They set when chilled to a more fudgy consistency.
Laura Maurillo says
I didn’t, that wasn’t anywhere in the instructions, but I will give it a go with what I have left I guess. If this suggestion changes my rating, I will promptly update my review. Thank you for your response.
Mudclam says
I used "Sweet Perfection" as my sweetener. Ingredients: 99.5% chicory root with a bit of organic stevia and monk fruit. This substitution did NOT work out well. The blondies had almost no sweetness and virtually oozed grease when I chewed them. Yes, I did let them cool completely. Just a warning against substituting this particular "sweetener," which was not sweet at all. Next time I'll stick to the recipe.
Taryn says
Please don't leave a 1 star rating when you substitute an important ingredient. If you commented before you made it I would've said I didn't think that sweetener would work.
mudclam says
Sorry. In the end I used that batch as a crust and topped it with some lemon-flavored cream cheese frosting with blueberries and a sprinkle of toasted almonds. Yummy. Probably I should look up a recipe for the ingredients I have on hand instead of substituting. I'm not giving up on these blondies. Will try again when I have some Gentle Sweet.
Kari says
How much in weight of cocoa butter?:)
Taryn says
5 oz
Bridgette Upton says
Can you use THM baking blend? If so how much baking blend to use in substitution of almond flour?
Taryn says
I'm not sure if baking blend will work in this recipe. You can use an equal amount if you want to try. Lmk how they come out.
Retta says
These look scrumptious. Do you have an idea of how much the 1 one cup of raw cacao butter would weigh, as in grams or ounces? (it's difficult for me to chop up hard stuff fine, so I thought maybe I could weigh it out).
Thanks for great recipes!
Taryn says
Google says 4 oz. It is on my to do list to test that this week to make sure!
Retta says
Thank you, Taryn. I'm looking forward to trying these.
Rita says
Hi can buy raw cacao butter in the supermarket not online and if it says nibs is that also good
Melissa says
How far does a pound of cacao butter stretch? I love white chocolate and miss it. Wondering how many recipes I could bake if I bought some.
Taryn says
In general I use a bag for 3-4 recipes. A little goes a long way.
Diane says
I would love to use a whole egg, not whites. Do you think it will be a problem? Should I use 1 or 2 whole eggs? Thank you 🙂
Taryn says
I'd really like to say 1.5 eggs but it's hard to half an egg. Lol. Go with 2 to be safe. Whole eggs should be fine.
Donna says
This looks delish! But I have a question since I'm new to THM- your JFE version of Gentle Sweet says to whirl it in the food processor to make it powdered like Gentle Sweet or just mix it by hand for baking. Since these blondies are baked, there's no need to powder it even though powdered sweeteners don't measure the same as granulated sweeteners? In other words, do I use 1/3 cup powdered or granulated JFE sweetener & if it's granulated, should I use less than 1/3 cup? Thanks!
Taryn says
1/3 cup granulated is fine. That is what I used. Hope you like them!
Rachel says
Mine didn't turn out. Is there supposed to be any baking soda/powder in the recipe? Mine were flat and burnt on the edges from the fat swimming all through there.
Taryn says
No baking soda or powder. They should re-absorb the fat as they cool. That's what makes them fudgy. Did you switch out any ingredients?
Rita says
Which sweetener so would u recommend tThinking swerve or pyre. I use stevia has erythinol and stevia glycosides in the ingredients. I read stevia not good for hannahs yummy brownie. I need to buy kosher product an not one thaT spikes blood sugar.
Taryn says
I prefer to mix my own. I use xylitol, erythritol, and stevia. https://joyfilledeats.com/sweetener/
Rita says
What is proportion of the three sugars combined such as erythinal and stevia and zylital is it a third of each to make your amazing sugar-free blend what's the difference in and Stevia sugars what would I look for to know it's good thanks so much love your site
Taryn says
Hi Rita, I have a whole post on sweeteners with more info here: https://joyfilledeats.com/sweetener/
Tiffany says
Can I use something other than cacao butter?
Taryn says
No, sorry, not to make blondies. Unsweetened chocolate might work to turn this into brownies but I have not tried it yet.
