Notes
Tips For Making Keto Cream Cheese Snickerdoodles
- These cookies will come out very soft but will firm up a bit at room temperature. Don’t be tempted to over-bake them!
- Try using a high quality granulated sweetener for the coating. You can either use a monkfruit/erythritol granulated sweetener or try Truvia! Truvia is great because it’s less likely to melt and stays granular longer.
