Here's how it went:
Sugar-Free Sugar Cookies
1 ½ C. flour
¾ C. butter
¼ C. honey
* Combine flour and butter in food processor (or mixer) until fine. Drizzle in honey while pulsing until mixture pulls together. Roll out and cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Bake at 300 for 10-15 minutes. So good, you’ll never want to eat another cut-out cookie with sugar again! You can also add a flavor extract. Be creative! Almond extract, vanilla, cinnamon, lemon etc. found here
*for the butter I substituted-"Smart Balance with Omega 3"
I used "creamed cinnamon honey" from my aunt's friends bee farm in Mississippi.
Also, I added about a 1/4 cup of flax seed and a couple drops of red food coloring.
This is the cutest heart cookie cutter my friend Heather got me for Christmas- I was so excited to finally get to use it!
Here's how the dough looks after mixing it up.
Here they are all lined up and ready to go in the oven!
End result= FAIL. My heart is almost as broken as these cookies are.
Even though the taste of them isn't unpleasant... it reminds me of flat biscuits more than cookies. It's highly possible my substitutions/ additions altered the recipe too much, so I'm not completely ruling this recipe out, just going to search for some different ones to try in the meantime!
Unfortunately, now I have no idea what to bring over to my boyfriend's (we are celebrating Valentine's day this evening) eeek!
until next,
