Swerve Sweetener

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup almond flour
• 2 tbsp coconut flour
• 2 tbsp cocoa powder (NOT super dark cocoa powder)
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 tbsp butter, softened
• 3/4 cup Swerve Sweetener
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 large eggs
• Red food coloring (you can use all natural vegetable dyes but it takes a lot of it to get the right red color)
• 1 cup sugar-free chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone liner.
2. In a medium bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, butter, Swerve, and vanilla, until well combined. Beat in eggs until well mixed.
4. Beat in almond flour mixture until well combined, then add enough food coloring to achieve a rich red. Stir in chocolate chips.
5. Scoop dough by the heaping tablespoon onto prepared baking sheets. With wet hands, press down to about ½ inch thick. Bake about 12 minutes, until just firm to the touch. Let cool in pan.

Makes about 30 cookies.
