Ingredients
- ¼ cup cream cheese
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup Purecane™ Brown Sweetener
- 1 large egg
- 1 ½ cup almond flour
- ⅓ cup shredded coconut

Directions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, and Purecane™ Brown Sweetener for 2 minutes.
- Add the egg and beat for 1 more minute.
- Fold in the almond flour until well-incorporated. (The dough will be on the stickier side).
- Wrap the cookie dough tightly in plastic wrap. Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes or the freezer for 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Form small cookie balls (about 1-2 tablespoons). Roll the cookie dough balls in the finely shredded coconut.
- Press your thumb in the center of each to create an indent in the center.
- Fill the indentions with jam of choice.
- Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool for at least 10 minutes. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Enjoy!
