↓ Jump to Recipe

A classic holiday cookie made low carb and sugar-free. These are soft, buttery and finished with a sugar-free chocolate kiss or a little low-sugar jam.

The cream cheese is optional; we liked them better without it, more like a peanut butter cookie.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  4. Scoop and roll into small balls, form into cookies on the baking sheet, and press a print into the middle of each.
