1/2 cup slivered almonds, finely ground
3/4 cup Atkins Quick Quisine
TM Bake Mix
3/4 cup granular sugar substitute
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1. Preheat oven to 375 F. Whisk almond flour, bake mix
and sugar substitute. In a separate bowl, with an electric
mixer on medium, beat egg and egg yolk, vanilla and
butter until well incorporated (mixture will not attain a
smooth consistency). With a rubber spatula, fold in flour
mixture just until combined.
2. Form dough into 24 small balls; arrange on an
ungreased baking sheet. Lightly flatten them with a fork
to silver dollar size. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until set. Cool
on baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack.
Based on a classic sugar cookie recipe, this batter is so
versatile, it even makes a nice tart or pie shell.
