This recipe for raspberry thumbprint cookies is a new arrival in the low carb cookies hall of fame. Seriously, someone should roll out a red carpet! I am always amazed at how you can achieve a new taste and texture by changing just a small detail in a recipe.
These keto thumbprint cookies have all of the elements of your favorite classic thumbprint cookie! A pillowy soft vanilla scented cookie, crusted with chopped walnuts and a dollop of strawberry (or any flavor) of jam nestled in the center. Betcha can’t eat just one!
To make basic low carb cookies, you need nut flour, butter, egg and a natural sweetener such as stevia or erythritol. This time, I decided to add cream cheese for a "fresher" taste. I made these thumbprint cookies in 3 different ways before I arrived at the PERFECT recipe. I baked one batch with no filling at all.
It's easy to be one. In my opinion, cookies - and in my case, low carb cookies - are just irresistible. Firstly, they are easy to make. They're a lot less daunting than a cake, for example. Secondly, they are portable and keep well. Then, they look all cute and petite. And last but not least, they go well with coffee! I am a serial cookie baker.
