Well now, let me tell you, making cookies ain’t just for the fancy folks, it’s for everyone! If you’re lookin’ to bake up some sweet treats that won’t send your sugar levels through the roof, I got just the thing for you. We talkin’ ’bout a cookie press recipe, and guess what? We gonna use that Monk fruit stuff. It’s a real wonder, I tell ya!
First off, let’s gather up our ingredients. You gonna need:
- 1 cup of Monk fruit sweetener
- 1/2 cup of butter, softened
- 1 egg
- 2 cups of almond flour
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Now, don’t be scared of that almond flour. It’s just ground up almonds, and it makes for some mighty fine cookies. You see, we ain’t usin’ regular flour ’cause we want to keep them carbs low, and this almond stuff does the trick!
Okay, now you got your ingredients all laid out, let’s get to the fun part. Preheat that oven of yours to about 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Ain’t nothin’ worse than cookies that don’t bake right, I tell ya!
Next, you gonna wanna grab a big ol’ bowl. In goes the butter and Monk fruit sweetener. You mix that up real good until it’s nice and creamy, like buttercream icing. Then add in your egg and vanilla extract. Give it another good stir, ’cause we want everything to be happy in that bowl!
Now, in another bowl, you mix together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Then slowly add this dry mix to the wet mix. You just keep stirrin’ until it’s all combined. It should be a nice, thick dough. If it’s too crumbly, just add a splash of water, but don’t go overboard!
Now comes the best part! If you got yourself a cookie press, this is where you can really show off. Load that dough into the press, and start squeezing out those shapes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. You can make all sorts of fun shapes—stars, flowers, you name it! If you ain’t got a press, don’t fret, just roll ‘em into little balls and flatten ‘em down with a fork. They still gonna taste good!
Once you got all your cookies on the sheet, pop ‘em in that oven for about 10-12 minutes. Keep an eye on ‘em; you want ‘em to be a little golden brown around the edges but still soft in the middle. Ain’t nothin’ worse than a dry cookie!
When they’re done, let ’em cool on the sheet for a minute, then transfer ‘em to a wire rack to cool completely. You can eat ‘em plain or decorate with some low-sugar icing if you’re feelin’ fancy. But honestly, they’re just fine as they are!
So there you have it, folks! A cookie press recipe that’s easy, tasty, and won’t leave you feelin’ guilty after munchin’ on a few. Perfect for the holidays or just a nice treat after dinner. And don’t forget, you can share ‘em with your family and friends, and they’ll never know you made ‘em sugar-free!
Now get to bakin’, and enjoy your sweet treats without all that sugar! You’ll thank me later, I promise!
