Mantecaditos (Rum Cookies)
|
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup non-hydrogenated shortening or lard
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 1/2 cups vanilla [zero-carb] protein powder
- 1 cup Splenda
- 1 Tablespoon almond extract
- 1 teaspoon Rum
(or 1/2 tsp rum flavored extract)
- 2 egg yolks
Preheat oven to 325°F.
With an electric mixer, mix everything but vanilla protein powder until creamy.
Add the vanilla protein powder and mix slowly (or you will form a cloud powder)
until a crumbly paste forms. Make a little ball with it and place
on a cookie sheet - repeat to make 40 balls/cookies. Gently press the
middle of each to flatten a bit (not too hard - they'll crumble.)
Bake for approximately 20 minutes at 325°F, (depending on your
oven.) Keep watch because they burn easily. Cool and enjoy!
Makes 40 cookies. 1 carb per cookie.
