Keto Chocolate Custard is delicious & everyone’s favorite. Custard is a popular dessert liked by almost everyone in the family. It is a very creamy, and tasty dessert made up of milk, cornstarch, and sugar. We can modify it according to our preference like chocolate, mango, and strawberry as well. But the classic custard has a high content of carbs and uses white sugar and cornstarch which make it unhealthy to consume. So I make the Keto custard recipe which is not only low in content of carb but also delicious and healthy. Keto Chocolate Custard is thickened with heavy cream and eggs and uses a keto-friendly sweetener, which makes it a perfect keto dessert. You can also call it Pot De Crème in French.
