  • Roll into balls. I made 20. I flattened them because they aren't going to spread in the oven.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 6 minutes. Depending on your oven, you might need to bake longer.
  • Allow to cool. Make the frosting. Beat everything together, adding desired amount of sweetener. I started with 2 tablespoons. I added 1 more. And then added the gentle sweet. Taste and adjust as needed.
