Ingredients
FOR SUGAR COOKIES
- 3 cups gluten-free flour (like Bob’s Red Mill)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup Swerve Sweetie Sweetener
- 1 cup organic grass-fed butter softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp full-fat coconut milk
FOR FROSTING
- 1/2 cup organic grass-fed butter softened
- 2 cups Swerve Sweetie Sweetener
- 1/2 cup collagen powder
- 4 tbsp full-fat coconut milk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1. Get Ready: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This makes cleanup a breeze!
- 2. Dry Mix: In a big mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour and baking powder. This ensures even rising for your healthy cookies. Set this aside.
- 3. Cream the Base: In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the softened butter with the Swerve Sweetie until it's light and fluffy. This creates a smooth foundation for your dough.
- 4. Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, vanilla extract, and coconut milk to the mixer. Continue mixing until everything is well incorporated and smooth.
- 5. Combine Gently: Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a lovely, thick dough forms. Be careful not to overmix!
- 6. Roll it Out: Lightly flour your counter or rolling surface. Take the dough, form it into a large ball, and roll it out evenly to about ¼ inch thick. A smart trick: place a piece of plastic wrap over the dough before rolling to prevent sticking!
- 7. Shape & Bake: Use your favorite cookie cutters to create fun shapes. Carefully place them on your prepared baking sheet and bake for 9-12 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden.
- 8. Cool Down: Let your delicious cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then gently transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Patience is key for perfect cookies!
- 9. Whip Up the Frosting: In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter until it's light and airy. Then, mix in the Swerve Sweetie, collagen powder, coconut milk, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth, spreadable, sugar-free frosting.
- 10. Decorate & Enjoy: Once the cookies are completely cool, spread your healthy frosting on top and get ready to enjoy your guilt-free summer treat!
