3 Ingredient Keto Chocolate Macadamia Clusters (low-carb, paleo, vegan)

These salted chocolate macadamia nut clusters are a great low-carb treat for the holidays! With just 3 ingredients they’re super easy to whip up and are stable at room temperature making them great for taking to holiday dinner parties.

There’s a few methods of making them; you can mix everything together in one bowl and scoop out the mounds or you can do what the video shows and place a bit of chocolate down on parchment, top with the nuts, then drizzle with more chocolate. It’s up to you which method you choose. A sprinkle of flaky sea salt on the top adds a nice touch.

Step-by-step

  1. Melt the chocolate in a small bowl by microwaving it in 30 second increments.

    Can I sprinkle unsweetened coconut on top to make it Hawaiian ?

    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor

      I like that idea!

  2. Lorraine

    Lily’s not available on UK Amazon. Any suggestions please ?

    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor

      I'd use 90% chocolate - or you can make your own sugar-free: Homemade Keto Chocolate

      Thank you for your kind words!❤️

  4. Racquel

    Hi, is there anyway to make the chocolate more like a milk chocolate as I can’t stomach dark chocolate. Thanks you.

    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor

      I think that Lily's also offer a sugar-free milk chocolate bar (check out Amazon).

    What are the ounces and cup measurement?

    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor

      Ounces are always included in the list of ingredients. The cup measurement for the chocolate chips is a little more than 1 1/3 cups.

    I love these simple recipes! I don't have time to cook or think of complicated meals and treats. This is perfect. I'll add some coconut oil and use my favorite 99% chocolate. No sweetener for me! 😊

    when I try to print your recipes my printer goes grey.

    1. Martina @ KetoDietAuthor

      Hi Linda, that's your printer settings - not this recipe. You have to adjust the quality of printing (usually in printer features > print quality but that depends on your printer). I hope this helps!
