I love creating healthy keto recipes for the spooky season. They are just so much fun to make and I get to experiment with ingredients I don't usually use — such as black cocoa powder.
I kept this recipe nut-free by using coconut flour although you could use about three times more almond flour if you need to substitute it for the coconut flour.
One batch will make 4 to 5 chaffles, depending on how much batter you use per chaffle. I find it easier to make 5 chaffles as the batter is less likely to leak out of the waffle maker. You can see more leakproof tips in my original Sweet Chaffle recipe.
I kept the frosting simple by adding sugar-free vanilla extract but you could add a few drops of green food colouring combined with some peppermint extract, or red food colouring with some cherry extract.
Ok, I'll admit it… The decoration is not exactly what I expected but I thought it was still pretty good for a simple 20-minute Halloween keto treat. Enjoy!

Ingredients (makes 5 chaffles)

Filling:
Instructions
- Preheat the mini waffle maker. Prepare all of the ingredients for the chaffle batter.
- Start with the whole egg, egg white, mozzarella and cream cheese. Blend until smooth.
- Add the dry ingredients (cocoa powder, coconut flour and baking powder) and blend again until well combined.
- Cook each waffle (about 50 g/1.8 oz batter) in a preheated mini waffle maker for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Open the waffle maker and let the chaffle rest to cool down slightly. Open the waffle maker, let the chaffle cool down for 15 seconds, and then use a spatula to remove and let cool down completely. Repeat until you make 5 chaffles.
- Meanwhile, while the chaffles are cooling down, place the whipping cream, cream cheese, vanilla extract and powdered Erythritol in the bowl of a mixer. Using the whisk attachment, whisk until thick and creamy.
- Place the mixture in a piping bag and decorate in any way you like. I tried to draw a spooky skeleton face but you can just spread the mixture on top using a spoon. The mixture is thick so you may need to use a spoon to smoothen your decorations.
- Store the separate components in the fridge for up to 3 days and decorate on the day you plan to serve them. For longer storage, freeze the chaffles (with or without topping) for up to 3 months.
