How to make keto cream cheese cookies
What I love about this recipe is it is so similar to a traditional cream cheese cookie. Just a few simple swaps and these turn out to be delicious sugar free cookies! We start by making our cookie dough which consists of butter, cream cheese, sugar free powdered sweetener egg, baking powder, vanilla, and almond flour. We combine these ingredients and then chill the dough for 20 minutes.
We then scoop the dough out into 20 tablespoon servings, roll in balls, roll in cinnamon and sugar, and bake in the oven. The result is a melt in your mouth keto cream cheese cookie!

- ¼ Cup Granular Sweetener (Click here to see my favorite on Amazon)

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- In a large mixing bowl add softened butter and cream cheese. Using a hand mixer, mix until butter and cream cheese is smooth. Slowly add your powdered sugar and continue to mix until fully combined. Add egg, baking powder, vanilla and salt. Mix until all your ingredients are combined. Add your almond flour slowly until incorporated. Refrigerate the dough for 20 minutes.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine your cinnamon and granulated sugar. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Using a 2 tablespoon scoop, scoop out cookie dough and roll into a ball. Place in cinnamon/sugar mixture. Toss to coat and place on parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Repeat with the remaining cookie dough. Should make about 18 cookies.

Followed the recipe exactly and these basically melted down into crepes versus cookies. Any idea what could have caused this?
Vickie says
Delicious! I found 20 minutes of refrigeration wasn’t nearly enough to firm up the butter and cream cheese so I ended up with a melty mess during the cinnamon rolling. Next time I’ll refrigerate at least an hour.
Jeff says
I had the same experience
Lorry Norton says
Is it possible to bake these in an air fryer?
Peggy Bruce says
Just made these, and they are delicious!
Chris says
These are really YUMMY! I found that I had to bake them a little bit longer than stated in the recipe, but this is a keeper for sure!
Linda K Smith says

2 Oreos are 140 calories which would be about the size of one of these cookies. The great thing is these do not spike your blood sugar!
