Chewy Cream Cheese Cookies
Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sweetener
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 cups almond flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
  • subheading: Optional:
  • Add ½ tsp flavor extracts, almond, peppermint, cake batter....
  • Top with sweetener & cinnamon
  • Top with chocolate chips, nuts, coconut....
  • Frost with favorite frosting once cooled
Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Line pan with parchment paper
  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, butter, sweetener, egg, and vanilla with a hand beater or stand mixer. Make sure it is well blended.
  4. Slowly add almond flour, baking powder and salt.
  5. The mixture will be sticky. Form a large ball and just manipulate it a bit and it loses the stickiness. Might be easier to finish mixing by hand.
  6. Form 1 inch ball and place on prepared baking sheet.
  7. Flatten a little so they are flat on the top but still very thick.
  8. Add toppings if desired
  9. Bake for 13 minutes or until they just start to brown.
  10. Allow to mostly cool on the baking sheet and then move to cooling rack.
  11. If frosting, wait until completely cooled.
Notes
  • These would also make a WONDERFUL thumbprint cookie. Fill with a berry filling, chocolate or even cream filled (after cooling)
