Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1 1/4 cup erythritol-based sweetener
2 large eggs, room temperature
2 tsp vanilla extract
4 cups almond flour
1/4 cup coconut flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
keto-friendly sprinkles
3 ounces sugar-free dark chocolate

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325ºF and line baking sheets with silicone liners or parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the butter with sweetener until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.
Add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt and beat until the dough comes together.
Fill a cookie press with dough and fit with your plate of choice. Press cookies onto the prepared sheets.
Bake the cookies 12 to 14 minutes, switching pan positions partway through. Cookies should be set but not browning much.
Press keto-friendly sprinkles into the centers of the cookies immediately upon removing from oven. Let cool completely on the pans.

Notes

– Use room temperature butter and eggs: this helps create a smooth, emulsified dough that presses easily.
– Don’t overmix the dough: beat just until combined to keep the cookies tender.
– If the dough is too stiff: let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften slightly before pressing.
– For a crispier cookie: bake for the full 14 minutes, ensuring they are just barely golden at the edges.
– Storage: store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
