Recipe: Low-carb, sugar-free, gluten-free almond cookies

This is a recipe for almond cookies that are low-carb, sugar-free and gluten-free. Before you begin, pre-heat your oven to 300F. You'll need: - 2 cups almond flour (ie ground almonds) - 1/2 cup Splenda (or equivalent liquid Splenda) - 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter - 1/2 tsp salt (omit if you used salted butter) - 1 tsp pure vanilla extract - 1 tsp pure almond extract Combine all ingredients. Form dough into walnut-sized balls and place onto greased cookie sheet. Bake for 5 minutes. Press down lightly with fork. (Optional: You may also place an almond in the middle of the cookie.) Return to oven and bake for another 15 minutes. Let cool and enjoy! 30 carbs for entire batch - less if you use liquid Splenda (ie Sweetzfree). You can buy Sweetzfree here: www.sweetzfree.com Original recipe credit www.lowcarbluxury.com (very slow server) I messed up the ending a bit, but this took so long to do that I'll just chalk it up to experience and make sure the next video's ending isn't chopped off!
