This sweet chocolate, orange, and pecan compound butter is part of our collection of Keto flavored butters 6 different ways.

This is a simple way to add extra fats and flavor to your Keto breakfasts and sweet treats.
How to Make It
Step 1
Let the butter come to room temperature so that it is soft and easy to mash. Add the butter to a mixing bowl and mash lightly with a fork. Add the orange juice to the mixing bowl along with the zest, cocoa powder, pecans, and erythritol. You may use your preferred low carb powdered sweetener if desired, adjusting to taste.
Step 2
Use a fork to mash the butter, cocoa powder, orange juice, zest, pecans, and erythritol together. Make sure to distribute the flavorings evenly throughout the butter. Taste and adjust sweetness/cocoa/orange as desired.
Step 3
Scoop the sweet butter out from the bowl and into the center of a square of plastic wrap or baking paper. Use your hands to mold the butter roughly into a log shape. Wrap the edges of the plastic wrap/paper tightly around the butter, securing the ends to seal. Transfer the butter to the fridge to set and firm for a minimum of two hours. Slice and serve as desired.
