Ingredients:

  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar substitute (such as erythritol or stevia)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
  2. Mix Ingredients:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar substitute. Beat together until light and fluffy, using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
  3. Add Vanilla Extract:
    • Add the vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
  4. Incorporate Flour:
    • Gradually add the self-rising flour to the mixture, mixing until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Shape Cookies:
    • Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with the palm of your hand or a fork.
  6. Bake:
    • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  7. Cool and Serve:
    • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your low-point butter cookies!
