Keto Red Velvet Sandwich Cookies without Sugar Mobile Featured Image

Ingredients for the cookies:
 ¾ cup defatted almond flour (3.5 oz/100g)
 3.50 oz soft butter (100g)
 ½ cup powdered erythritol (2.5 oz/70g)
 1 tsp unsweetened baking cacao powder
 1 tsp red food coloring
 ¼ tsp vanilla extract
Ingredients for the cream filling:
 ¼ cup full-fat cream cheese (2.1 oz/60g)
 1 ½ tbsp butter (0.9 oz/25g)
 1 ½ tbsp powdered erythritol (0.4 oz/12g)
Preparing the cookies:
1

Add the butter, powdered erythritol and vanilla extract to a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer until you get a pale and fluffy mass.
 

2

Fold in the remaining ingredients for the cookies until you get a smooth dough.
 

3

Preheat your oven to 350°F/180°C.
 

4

Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out until it’s about 0.2″/5mm thick.
Use a 2"/5cm circle-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the cookies.

Repeat this process until no dough is left.
 

5

Carefully place the cookies on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

☝︎ The dough tends to fall apart rather easily, that's why using a large knife or a cake lifter can be of big help to transfer the cookies onto the baking tray without breaking them.
 

6

Bake the cookies for about 7-8 minutes in your preheated oven.

☝︎ Every oven is different, that’s why the baking time in your oven might vary a bit from ours.

Keep an eye on the cookies, as almond flour tends to burn a bit faster than regular all-purpose wheat flour.
 

7

Let the cookies cool down completely while you continue with the next step.
 

Preparing the cream filling:
8

Prepare the cream filling while the cookies cool down.

Start by adding the butter and powdered erythritol to a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer until you get a pale and fluffy mass.
 

9

Fold in the cream cheese until you get a smooth mass.
 

10

Once the cookies are cold, you can fill them with the cream cheese filling.

To do this, take one cookie and place approx. 1.5-2 tsp of the creme on it.
Take a second cookie and place it on top of the creme.

Press the second cookie down, until the creme is spread evenly between the cookies.

Repeat this step with the remaining cookies, until you have no cookies and creme left.
 

11

Place the finished cookies in your fridge and let them chill for about an hour before enjoying them.
