LOW CARB ALMOND COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Using and electric mixer blend softened butter for a minute. Add remaining ingredients and mix together.
• Form dough into walnut sized balls and place onto ungreased cookie sheet. The oil from the butter and almond flour grease the sheet as the cookie bakes.
• Bake for 5 minutes. Press down lightly with fork, then continue to bake another 18 minutes. The cookies do not brown.
• 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.

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).

• In the bowl with the yolks add the vanilla extract and butter.
• Add the sweetener and mix again.

• Divide the dough evenly into about 15 little heaps of dough and place them on a cookie sheet. Make sure they are far enough apart because they will spread out a little. Bake for about 12 minutes at 190 C for soft cookies, go to about 17 minutes for crunchier ones.

LOW CARB SUGAR-FREE ALMOND COOKIES

• 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.
