Quick Low Carb Shortbread
I like to have a little snack sometimes in the afternoon with a cup of black coffee. I have always loved shortbread, but the sugary, carby cookies from the grocery store or my own oven were not only unhealthy but felt addicting. I could eat the whole pan and not be satisfied. Now, I try to keep my snacks to 100-200 calories, low in carbs and higher in protein and fat. This is a nice way to enjoy shortbread that is low carb, sugar free, and grain free. The edges are nice and crisp and the shortbread has a very nice crumb. They are tasty but don't have that crazy addictive nature to them that sugary, high carb shortbread cookies do. And you can't get a simpler, more easy shortbread recipe!
