These bars are keto friendly, and can be made quickly! This recipe is perfect for those on a low carb diet who still crave that sweet indulgence.

If you love Girl Scout cookies, but are trying to stay on the keto diet these Samoa cookie bars should be your new go-to. They’re rich and chocolatey with a hint of coconut flavor that will satisfy any craving without risking your waistline or health goals.

Are samoas the same as Caramel deLites?

Samoas have coconut and Caramel deLites have caramel. I’d say if you like coconut, it doesn’t really matter which one you go for. They’re both delicious in their own right!

The Problem With Regular Samoa Cookies

Regular Samoa cookie bars contain flour and sugar, not to mention a ton of calories. They aren’t something you can eat on a low carb diet. That’s why I decided to make this version instead. Keto Samoas bars are easy to make if you have the ingredients around the house already. So they’re perfect for last minute desserts that won’t break your ketogenic diet (or any other type of special diet!).

How do you store Samoa cookie bars after making them?

They’re quite resilient, so you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three (3) days. It’s best to heat them up in the microwave again before eating if you’ve chilled them.

Try these bars when you want an indulgent treat that won’t break your diet and are perfect for any time of year.
