Laura’s Cream Cheese Cookies

For the bottom crust:

I coarsely ground up 1/2 cup almonds (about 2 1/2 ounces) and mixed it with 1/2 cup gluten flour.  You might add some Splenda.  Then I cut up some butter in to the mixture and patted it into the bottom of an 8 inch square pan.

Bake this at 350 degrees until golden brown.

For the topping I mixed:

1/4 cup Splenda
8 ounces cream cheese
1 egg
2 tbsp. cream
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tbsp. lemon juice

Spread this over the crust and bake for 25 minutes at 350 degrees.  It was great!
I estimate about 45 carbs (w 7.5 carbs fibre) and without Splenda in the crust.  If you cut it into 16 square that would be less than 3 carbs per cookie. You might also look at other ways to save carbs by using almond flour or soy flour or sweetener tablets instead of the powder.
