Easy Keto Holiday Cookies
These colorful Holiday Cookies are among the easiest Keto holiday desserts you can prepare this year. They are a fantastic treat for the entire family, whether on Keto or not (even the kids will enjoy these). We prepared these cookies with gelatin powder instead of the usual JELL-O to keep them low-carb and Keto-friendly. Then, we added some green and red food coloring (you can add some other colors of your choice). Please note that the total preparation time includes the time necessary to refrigerate the dough and that you actually need about 35 minutes to prepare them. The recipe yields 20 cookies, but you can prepare more. Remember to cool the cookies to room temperature before trying to remove them from the cookie sheet, as they crumble easily. Serve as a delicious holiday dessert or a quick afternoon snack. Enjoy!
How do you store these cookies?
Store the cookies in air-tight containers and refrigerate. They will remain fresh for a few days.
Are these cookies freezer-friendly?
You can freeze these cookies for a few months. Gently thaw at room temperature before serving.
