Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup Granulated erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Almond extract
- 2 Egg yolks
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Sugar-free fruit spread or jam
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated erythritol until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract, almond extract, and egg yolks to the butter mixture. Beat until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until the dough forms.
Step 5
Using a tablespoon-sized scoop or spoon, form the dough into 1-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Using your thumb or the back of a spoon, make an indentation in the center of each cookie dough ball.
Step 7
Fill each indentation with about 1/2 teaspoon of sugar-free fruit spread or jam.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
