Candy Cane Cookies

Recipe makes 12 cookies

Ingredients:

½ cup coconut flour
⅔ cups HLTH Code Vanilla
¼ tsp baking powder
½ tsp xanthan gum
¼ tsp salt
1 cup sugar-free sweetener of choice
¼ cup butter
1 large egg
red food coloring

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F/177°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Whisk together the coconut flour, HLTH Code Vanilla, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt in a large bowl. Cream the butter with the sweetener in a separate bowl, until smooth and fluffy. Add the egg, and carefully mix with the dry ingredients.

Divide dough into 2 balls, add the red coloring in 1 ball, and knead until the coloring is evenly incorporated. Divide each dough ball into 12 small balls, roll each ball into a long line, and then intertwine one line of each of the two colors to make candy cane-shaped cookies.

Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 min until golden brown on the edges. Cool completely and store in an airtight container.
