Based on a classic sugar cookie recipe, this batter is so versatile, it even makes a nice tart or pie shell.

113 grams slivered almonds, finely ground
170 grams Atkins Quick QuisineTM Bake Mix
3/4 cup granular sugar substitute
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened to room temperature

1. Preheat oven to 375° F. Whisk almond flour, bake mix and sugar substitute. In a separate bowl, with an electric mixer on medium, beat egg and egg yolk, vanilla and butter until well incorporated (mixture will not attain a smooth consistency). With a rubber spatula, fold in flour mixture just until combined.
2. Form dough into 24 small balls; arrange on an ungreased baking sheet. Lightly flatten them with a fork to silver dollar size. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, until set. Cool on baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack.
