Low Carb Almond Cookies

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350u00b0F

2. 2

   Combine and mix all dry ingredients.

3. 3

   Add softened butter and rub into dry ingredients until even (produces a slightly grainy texture).

4. 4

   Add egg whites and mix well.

5. 5

   Using a leveled tbsp, plop dough onto parchment paper. Press each cookie down with a fork. You can use your fingers to fix the shape.

6. 6

   Bake 18-20 minutes depending on desired -- brown-ness I guess. I like mine darker, so 20 minutes is good and still gives you a soft middle.

7. 7

   Remove to cool on a wire rack and munch away.

8. 8

   Notes: I used natural almond flour, not blanched, so my cookies are dark to begin with. I think either would be fine for the recipe.

9. 9

   I suggest melting some dark chocolate and dipping the cookies in half way for extra yumminess. Lindt 85%, 90% or even 99% would be good depending on your needs.
