¼ tsp salt
2 medium eggs
⅓ cup melted butter (80 ml)

Instructions:

For the cookies

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Mix the almond flour, coconut flour, HLTH Code Chocolate, baking powder, salt, and sweetener in a large mixing bowl.

Then add the eggs and melted butter, and mix into a soft dough.

Scoop and flatten into cookies. Use a cookie cutter if you prefer a perfect, uniform finish.

Bake for about 10–12 minutes until set. Cool completely.

For the salted caramel

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the allulose until it turns golden.

Add the butter and stir until smooth. Slowly add heavy cream then stir until glossy, while it bubbles and froths. Add the salt and let cool slightly.

For the vanilla cream

Beat the cream cheese until smooth and add HLTH Code Vanilla. Slowly whip in the heavy cream until light and fluffy.

Once the caramel is slightly cooled, fold it into the vanilla cream until smooth and creamy.

Spread the filling onto one cookie and sandwich with another.
