LOW-CARB ALMOND SHORTBREAD COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix almond flour, sweetener, and salt together in a small bowl with a fork. Add butter, egg white, and vanilla extract; continue mixing with a fork. Place in the freezer to help it harden for 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a silicone baking mat.
• Remove batter from freezer. Measure out 1 teaspoon at a time; roll into balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. Place plastic wrap on the bottom of a glass and roll dough balls flat.
• Bake in the preheated oven until light, golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

KETO ALMOND COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Line two large cookie sheets with parchment paper.
• Combine the dough ingredients in a food processor or stand mixer and mix until incorporated.
• With a small cookie scoop, scoop dough into 30 balls, and roll in the almond meal. Please the balls on the prepared baking sheet. Place on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake for 14-16 minutes until they are barely golden.
• Store at room temperature for 2-3 days. For longer storage, they can go in the refrigerator but need to be at room temperature before serving for the right texture.

LOW CARB CREME FILLED ALMOND TEA COOKIES

Steps:

• Using stand mixer on low speed, creme butter and add flours and creme and baking powder. Do not overmix. Add soy flour as needed to make a non sticky batter.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Roll out dough to less than 1/8" thick on a surface lightly floured with soy flour. A silicone mat is desirable. Use a round cutter such as a shot glass to cut round cookies 1 1/4" in diameter. A 1" copper pipe fitting from a home improvement store also works very well. Place the cookies on an ungreased cookie sheet 1/4 inch apart.
• Using a fork, pierce each cookie in four parallel rows. Sprinkle each cookie with splenda. A salt shaker works well for this purpose.
• Bake cookies for 8-10 minutes until golden and puffy. Do not brown.
• Remove cookies from sheet to cooling rack at once. A metal spatula is best to remove cookies from sheet. They will be brittle, especially when hot.
• Make the creme frosting. Either used powdered erythritol and splenda, or powder it yourself to the consistency of confectioners sugar using either a food processor with an S blade or a coffee grinder. Combine the powdered erythritol, splenda, almond extract, butter and heavy creme. Add the red food coloring and mix until smooth and creamy.
• Make sandwiches with the cookies so the splenda coated side of the cookie is facing towards the outside. (optional) May gently heat creme frosting in microwave to facilitate spreading it onto cookie.
• Refrigerate (optional).

LOW CARB SUGAR-FREE ALMOND COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix coconut, vanilla extract, almond extract, cream and Da Vinci simple syrup together and set aside. In a separate bowl, mix almond meal with baking powder, then add the eggs and stir. Add to the coconut mixture and mix well. Drop the resulting dough on to a cookie sheet sprayed with nonstick spray. The cookies don't spread out much, but they do puff up a bit so make sure that aren't piled high. Place a whole almond in the middle of each cookie.
• Bake for approximately 10 minutes in a 350º oven or until the edges on the bottom begin to turn golden brown.

LOW CARB ALMOND COOKIES

• Let cool on sheet for 5 minutes before removing.
• For a more festive look, you can drizzle a little melted chocolate (sugar-free, of course) on top.
