Cream Cheese Cookies

Cream cheese adds a lovely flavour and texture to these cream cheese cookies. Baked with coconut flour they are low carb and gluten free too.

These cream cheese cookies are soft and chewy but firm up the next day after stored in the fridge. I have a cheese biscuit recipe full of butter that is melt in your mouth deliciousness so thought about making a sweet version. The key to that recipe is the butter and cheese. So, with the sweet version, butter was in! To make it extra melt in your mouth, cream cheese was added! The mixture is very soft and gooey so needs to be rolled up and left to firm up in the fridge.

Once firmed up, you just slice the dough and bake! Voila, a delicious batch of low carb cream cheese cookies. This cookie dough could be made in advance. Perhaps keep a roll of dough in the fridge for cookie emergencies!

Although I kept this plain, I did have plans of dipping the cookies half in chocolate for decoration. I will confess that I ate the chocolate bar I had in the back of the cupboard. So, plain looking cookies it was! I will also confess that this happened twice. Proving that I cannot be trusted with chocolate in the cupboard. When you look at the photos imagine half of the cookie dipped in chocolate and you will know what I was going for!
