I love cookies. These are pretty good. You don't need my life story. Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:
For the cookies....
2.5 cups almond flour
0.5 cups oat fiber
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp All Spice
1/2 cup butter (softened)
1 cup Swerve (erythritol)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
1/2 cup almond milk (unsweetened)

For the frosting...
Confectioners Swerve (powdered erythritol)
Water

Instructions:
Sift together the almond flour, oat fiber, baking powder, nutmeg, and All Spice. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter, erythritol, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the almond milk. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 45 mn. 

Preheat oven to 350
°F. Roll out the dough on a surface lightly floured (I used oat fiber for this) until approximately 1/8 in thick. Cut into desired shapes. Transfer to baking sheet and cook for 12-15 minutes. Immediately transfer to fridge or freezer to prevent erythritol crystalization. Allow cookies to fully cool before frosting. 

Mix the confectioners Swerve with water until you get the desired consistency for frosting. Add food coloring as desired, frost cookies, and enjoy!

FYI, the cookie that says, "Die!!" on it is for my brother. He's a Grinch and doesn't let us listen to holiday music around the house :/
