We all know how hard it can be to stick to a low carb diet during the holiday season. With so many get-togethers and parties with food that is as far from keto as possible. Well, now you don't have to worry!

Our keto snowball cookies are low carb and taste just like traditional snowballs. They are soft, buttery and melt in your mouth while you eat them! Each cookie contains just 1.1g net carbs and luckily this recipe makes a large batch.

Ingredients You'll Need

To make snowball keto cookies you'll need (exact measurements in the recipe card below):

  • Almond flour - very fine blanched almond flour.
  • Erythritol
  • Butter - soft butter at room temperature
  • Milk - full-fat
  • Vanilla extract
  • Salt
  • Dried cranberries - you can add a dried cranberry to each snowball but this will make the cookie have 2.8g net carbs, so you won't be able to eat as many!

How to Make Keto Snowball Cookies

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) and line a baking pan with baking paper.
