Baking sheet
Parchment paper
Whisk
Cookie scoop (optional)
Wire rack

Ingredients

½ cup cream cheese softened
½ cup unsalted butter softened
1 cup almond flour
½ cup granular erythritol
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and butter using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the granular erythritol to the cream cheese mixture and beat until well incorporated.
Crack the egg into the bowl, pour in the vanilla extract, and mix until the egg is fully combined into the batter.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, beating after each addition until a soft dough forms.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each ball of dough with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
