Do you love shortbread as much as I do? I’ve never been able to get enough Walker’s Shortbread or Lorna Doones. And now I can’t get enough of this sugar-free, low-carb version that my family and I now enjoy.
These are super delicious, and they are super duper easy to make. No mixer and certainly no sifter required! I simply stir the six ingredients together in a bowl, scoop them out, criss-cross them with a fork, and about ten minutes later I’m in shortbread heaven.
Try these cookies! You’ll love them! And then, do what I do. Make them for family and friends who don’t even need to eat sugar-free, and watch them devour them without even noticing that there is no sugar. Ha!
P.S. I’ve recently been buying my almond flour at Aldi! Yay for affordable groceries, and even specialty items like almond flour.
