Ingredients

Cookies

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 2 tablespoon coconut flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 6 tablespoon butter softened
  • ¼ cup granular erythritol
  • ¼ cup brown erythritol
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Frosting

  • 3 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 2 tablespoon powdered erythritol
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 tablespoon heavy whipping cream room temperature

Caramelized Sugar Topping

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare baking sheet pan with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, salt, and xanthan gum.
  • In a large bowl, cream butter using an electric hand mixer. Add sweeteners and stir slightly with a silicone spatula. Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Gradually beat in flour mixture until dough forms.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop (about 1 tablespoon) or hands, place 12 mounds of dough on baking sheet pan spaced at least 1 inch apart. This dough is not prone to spreading. Flatten until desired thickness (Note: Cooking times will vary depending on cookie thickness). Bake 13-14 minutes. Bake until edges are slightly brown. Allow to cool on baking sheet pan for 2-3 minutes then move to cooling rack. Allow to completely cool before frosting.
  • To make the frosting, beat cream cheese until smooth using an electric hand mixer. Beat in sweetener and vanilla extract, then add the heavy cream 1 tablespoon at a time until spreadable consistency.
  • To make caramelized sugar topping, place granular erythritol in a small bowl. Frost cookies then press each one into the bowl of sweetener, coating the frosting with sweetener.
  • Just before serving, use a culinary torch to caramelize the sweetener on top, then allow to cool for 2-3 minutes. Store cookies in the fridge for up to 4 days.
