INGREDIENTS

  • 1 stick butter (8 tablespoon or ½ cup)- softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups Carbquick
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar- (only adds 1.8 net carbs per batch)
  • 1 cup xylitol (or your granulated sweetener of choice)- separated into ¾ Cup and ¼ Cup
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoon cinnamon- separated in half 

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, egg, and vanilla until soft and fluffy.
  • Sift together all the remaining ingredients except for ¼ cup of sweetener and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon. Mix those two ingredients in a separate small bowl and set aside for rolling.
  • Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just until combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent the butter from becoming too warm, which can cause the cookies to flatten.
  • Scoop and roll the dough into 2-3 inch balls. You should have enough for approx. 18 cookies.
  • Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon-sweetener mixture.
  • Place the coated dough balls on a greased cookie sheet.
  • Refrigerate the cookie sheet with the dough balls for 5-10 minutes.
  • Bake the cookies for approximately 10 minutes or until they turn golden and set.
  • Let cool completely and then you can enjoy the delicious low-carb snickerdoodles guilt-free!
