Comments on Butter Cookies

These are good but even better with a little cream cheese frosting. Yum! Also love how easy and limited ingredients this recipe has.

I followed the recipe exactly and they came out perfect. I did sprinkle a little salt and monk fruit sweetener. They were delicious. I will try different variations. Thank you for the recipe, a really great snack for everyone.

So Good! Especially a day or two later. Tastes the closest to shortbread that I've been able to find. I made half the batch plain and half with chopped pecans. Couldn't decide which I liked better. Only other change was that I flattened with a spatula instead of using a fork. These turn out so crispy and were so buttery! Heaven. There is a slight cooling effect from the erythritol but only in the first bite or two.

Made last night. Quick easy and tasty. I did refrigerate after baking. Refreshing treat.

I made these, with slight adjustments. I used a store-brand Splenda, so increased the sweetener to almost 1/2 C. I added cardamom to the cookie, then created a thumbprint and poured blackberries into the center. They were divine. took about 12 minutes to cook, as I only make 6 cookies out of it, so they were large enough for the thumbprints to hold a goodly amount of berry.

Did you use 1/2 cup granulated Splenda and turn it into powdered, or just granulated?

I literally just tried these & I'm AMAZED at how they can be crispy! Didn't do the criss cross pattern, just rolled them into balls & flattened them out. They taste just like non-keto cookies! Definitely the best keto cookie recipe I've tried out so far.

Holy crap -- I made these with 3 tbsp of Lakanto's Golden Monkfruit Sweetener (tastes/smells like brown sugar) and they came out amazing. Better than most other butter cookies I've had. Even 3 tbsp was a bit much, so next time I'll try with 2 tbsp. I want more butter flavor than sweetness if ya know what I mean... :) Thanks for the recipe!

I added about two tablespoons of cream cheese (it’s keto friendly!) and adjusted the almond flour to 1 1/3 cup. All other ingredients remained according to the recipe. Came out decent... didn’t really get the cream cheese effect though. Should probably add a little more cream cheese (seeing as I’m not using real sugar, which would aid in a more chewy, sweet, cheesy result)? I try another time and let y’all know how it goes!

Amazing cookies! Couldn't find vanilla essence so used a dash of lemon juice instead and they turned out fab.

I am in Europe and I am not sure what you mean when you say "almond flour". Is it just fine ground almonds, or is it made from (partly) de-oiled almonds?

Fine ground almonds. Easily available here. Can also be found online. Such as, Amazon.

Love it! Do them every week.

I made these as I'm now on a Keto lifestyle and I'd like to have a little something naughty for here and there... I like eggs in my baked goods, so I added 1 egg. I also had a tiny accident with the almond extract and added a tiny bit too much (no such thing, but I digress). So I added another scant half cup of almond flour to make up for the extra liquid. I added up all the calories and macros and I was able to get 14 cookies out of the batch (I weighed the balls to ensure consistency) and they came in at 128 Calories/ 8gFat/ 5gC/ 5gP/ 1gfiber per cookie. thank you for an EXCELLENT base recipe. I will make these in the future with lemon extract then tossed in Swerve confectioners sugar (greek style) or maybe replacing some of the almond with pistachios, replacing the vanilla with rose water, and a tiny bit of cardamom (Persian style). THANK YOU!

Just had to make these low carb cookies, awesome for anyone watching their carbs. Love your blog, Vicki

I used lemon juice instead of vanilla. Gave them a little more flavor. I always do that with my regular sugar cookies and everyone loves the extra tang!

Hello! I love these cookies! I tried switching the almond flour for coconut and the dough didn’t come out right. I tried adding quite a bit more butter and they still crumbled:( Any suggestion for using coconut flour that will make this come out right?!?

Thank you!!

Had these for breakfast on a rainy Saturday morning! Yummo! Thanks for the recipe!

Oh my word, these are delicious.

I made this recipe! I substituted 3 drops liquid caramel stevia for the erythritol + 1 tsp unsweetened sunbutter, and I also added an additional 1/4 cup almond flour - they turned out amazingly!

These are amazing! I followed the recipe but added 1/2 tsp almond extract and slivered almonds. Made 12 perfect cookies. Great with tea!

Amazing!! Added the juice of half a lemon and they were delicious!
