Keto Sprinkle Sugar Cookies
How to Make It
Step 1
Cream the salted butter, cream cheese, xanthan gum, and powdered sweetener for 5-7 minutes. Cream these ingredients for the entire length of time as it ensures a very light and fluffy cookie. Ensure all the ingredients are at room temperature, especially the butter and cream cheese, to aid in this process.
Step 2
Next, add in the almond flour, kosher salt, and vanilla extract. Then beat the almond flour in for 2-3 minutes. Gently fold in the sugar-free sprinkles until well combined.
Step 3
Divide the dough in half and wrap each in plastic wrap. Form each into a disk shape and chill for 30 minutes to one hour. You want to make sure the dough is properly chilled as the dough is sticky.
Step 4
Preheat an oven to 350 F. Once the dough is chilled, roll each dough out into a ¼” thickness in between two pieces of parchment paper. Then cut the dough using a 2 to 2 ½” round or scalloped edge circle cookie cutter. Place the cookies on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
Step 5
Chill the baking sheet with the cookies on for 10 minutes. Then bake the cookies for 8-9 minutes until puffed and very lightly golden brown. Allow them to cool most of the way on the cookie sheet, then remove them to a cooling rack.
