This keto chocolate pudding only contains 3.6 grams of net carbs per serving. How incredible is that?! One of the ways I keep the carbohydrate count of sweet dishes low is by using Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener!
Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener
Lakanto makes the absolute BEST sweetener out there. It tastes DELICIOUS! It’s net carb free, calorie free, and zero glycemic, meaning it will NOT spike blood sugar! It tastes exactly like sugar, and it’s honestly a life saver when it comes to creating ketogenic diet-friendly sweets.
Monk fruit sweetener is great because it incorporates into recipes SO easily. It utilizes a 1:1 ratio to granulated sugar, so there is no measuring required.
Lakanto offers two variations of their sweetener: Classic and Golden. Classic is typically used as a replacement for white sugar, and Golden for brown. However, you can use both variations interchangeably! Whichever you have on hand will work completely fine.
If you would like to try out Monk Fruit Sweetener, now is the PERFECT time. Lakanto provides TWO awesome ways for Real Balanced readers to save.

Jena says
I just made the chocolate pudding except I can’t have the heavy cream so I substituted with unsweetened almond milk. It’s chilling now but I think it’s going to be awesome!!!! Thank you soo much. We have been eating keto for a month and we desperatly needed a good dessert recipe.
Sara Nelson says
Hope you enjoy, Jena!!
Diane says
Delicious!! I have made this many times and will again tomorrow. Easy, delicious and low carb!!!?
Laura Thompson says
LOVE this! Easy to make
Maria says
I made the pudding. Creamy and delicious just like I hoped! The only thing is that it turned out a little bitter. I had to add more stevia to it. I plan in reducing the cocoa powder a bit.
Kathryn says
I agree, Maria, it is bitter. I had to use Stevia b/c I didn’t have the monk fruit sweetener. Let me know if reducing the cocoa powder helped, please.
Paulete Fara-Schembri says
Can you do this recipe dairy free using Daiya cream cheese and something other than heavy whipped cream?
Sara Nelson says
Hi, Paulete! I can’t say for sure as I’ve never personally worked with Daiya cream cheese but, if it’s the same consistency as regular cream cheese, I could see that working! You may be able to get away with subbing in canned coconut cream for the heavy whipping cream! If you try this, let me know how it goes! ☺️
Cindy Warren says
What if I have Monk Powder Sugar would that not be able to be used instead of using the regular and putting it in the food processor?
Sara Nelson says
Great question, Cindy! Since your monk fruit sweetener is already powdered, you can just skip the step of pulsing it in the food processor.
Ren says
Well this looks delightful!!!
Sara Nelson says
So yummy! Thanks, Ren! ?
Doreen says
I’ve made this recipe and it’s absolutely delicious, however, I was wondering how you arrived at the fiber content because none of the ingredients contain fiber? If you could fill me in, I’d sure appreciate it because it is SO GOOD!
Sara Nelson says
Good question! I have to add sugar alcohol content to fiber content in my nutrition labels because the system I use does not have the capability to include it, so that fiber amount you’re seeing is coming from that sugar alcohol.
