Keto/Low Carb Holiday Cookie Recipes Pt.2- No Almond Flour! Raspberry Thumbprints & Butter Cookies

I figured out delicious keto thumbprint cookies and wanted another cookie to add to the video and I really wanted to do a traditional Italian Christmas cookie. I really wanted to make Italian cucidati cookies but they have a bunch of ingredients not good for keto but maybe when I get pregnant and do more low carb I will attempt a recipe for next Christmas!! I saw pictures of chocolate dipped Italian butter cookies and thought they looked amazing so I got to work. Crispy on the outside, soft and buttery in the middle so yummy!!!

I created a patreon account. I have many ideas for the future of this channel and maybe even creating my own keto line of desserts at some point. I'm going to be posting some inspirational stuff over there along with more information about my life, past, present and future. I'm excited to take this extra step and do some extra content for supporters. Some behind the scenes of my recipe testing successes and fails alike. Maybe even some merch down the line! If you would like to support me and this channel, please consider becoming a patron.
