Ingredients
Vanilla Shortbread
- 1 cup almond flour
- 3 tbsp. granulated monk fruit
- 3 tbsp. coconut oil, melted
- 1 tbsp. water
- 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp. sea salt
- 1/8 tsp. nutmeg
Chocolate Shortbread
- 3/4 cup almond flour
- 3 tbsp. cocoa powder
- 3 tbsp. granulated monk fruit
- 3 tbsp. coconut oil, melted
- 1 tbsp. water
- 1/4 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp. sea salt
Instructions
- Combine all of the vanilla shortbread ingredients together in a large food processor. Mix on High for about 45 seconds, until a thick cookie dough forms. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 15 minutes.
- Combine all of the chocolate shortbread ingredients together in a large food processor. Mix on High for about 45 seconds, until a thick cookie dough forms. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and place in the refrigerator to chill for at lease 15 minutes.
- While the dough chills, preheat the oven to 350F. Prepare a cookie sheet by lightly spraying it with coconut oil cooking spray.
- Divide each of the 2 dough mixtures in half. Roll each half of dough into a large rectangle, about 12″ by 3″ in size on top of a sheet of parchment paper.
- Stack each rectangle of dough on top of each other, alternating between the vanilla and chocolate shortbread doughs.
- Use the parchment paper to help roll the rectangle of dough into a large sphere so that the chocolate and vanilla cookie doughs adhere together.
- Slice the “tube” of cookie dough into 24 evenly sized cookies about 1/2″ thick with a sharp knife. Place the slices of cookie dough on to the prepared cookie sheet.
- Bake for 10 minutes, until the bottoms are slightly golden-brown. Let the cookies cool completely before removing from the cookie sheet & enjoy!
