Sugar Free Sugar Cookies for Valentines Day

Here's how to make sugar free Valentines Day sugar cookies using Swerve, my choice of sugar replacement.

Ingredients

butter  Swerve  egg  pure almond extract  pure vanilla extract all purpose flour baking powder  salt

INSTRUCTIONS

– In a stand mixer add the butter and Swerve blend and beat until creamy and fluffy, 3-5 minute. – Add the egg and extracts and beat until completely mixed in.

INSTRUCTIONS

Add the baking powder, salt as the mixer is mixing slowly. Then slowly add the flour, a little bit at a time. Let the mixer slowly combine everything together until it forms (it looks like playdough).

INSTRUCTIONS

Lay out plastic wrap and flatten the dough slightly over top. Wrap it up and chill for at least 30 minutes. Once the dough is chilled, pre heat the oven to 375F.

INSTRUCTIONS

Flour your working space so the dough doesn't stick to your countertops. Roll out the dough until it's about 1/4 inch thick. You can go thinner if you want but it will take less time to bake.

INSTRUCTIONS

Use your cookie cutters and press out fun shapes. Lay on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 8-9 minutes (keep an eye on them, you want the edges to be golden and they burn quick).

INSTRUCTIONS

While the cookies bake, I put the dough back in the fridge to chill and roll it back out once the sheet pans come out of the oven and cool down a bit. Frost with royal icing or whatever frosting you fancy. I personally prefer them plain.
