For the cookies: 1. Let butter and cream cheese soften. 2. Preheat oven to 350F. Using an electric mixer, mix softened butter and sweetener until combined. Add cream cheese and mix again. Add egg, vanilla, and salt, and mix until well combined. Finally, add coconut flour (or almond flour) and mix until a dough forms. 3. Place dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming balls of 1 tablespoon each (should yield 12-15 cookies). Flatten each ball. 4. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges begin to brown lightly. Let cool for 5 minutes before frosting and enjoying. For the frosting: 1. Soften butter and cream cheese. 2.

Frost the cooled cookies and enjoy!
