Instructions on how to make Lemon Cream Sandwich Cookies

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, butter, sweetener, lemon juice, and vanilla until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the coconut and almond flour with the baking soda and salt.
  • Slowly stir the dry ingredients into the wet until fully combined and a thick cookie dough forms.
  • Form the cookie dough into 20 balls and flatten each one to about 1/4-1/2 inch thickness on the parchment lined cookies sheets.
  • Bake the cookies for 7-9 minutes in the preheated oven until they’re just beginning to brown, and allow to cool for 2 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Once cookies are cool enough to handle, chill them in the refrigerator or freezer for a bit before filling.
  • Meanwhile, while the cookies are baking or cooling, make the filling.

Filling

  • In a bowl or blender, whisk/blend together the cooled coconut oil with the sweetener, lemon, and vanilla.
  • Then, beat in the coconut cream until a thick cream forms, then cover and put in the freezer for about 10 minutes before filling the cookies.
  • To fill cookies, make sure the cream and cookies are chilled, then scoop filling on the bottom of one cookie and cover with another.

 

  • This recipe makes a total of 10 cookies.
  • Store cookies covered in the refrigerator and enjoy!

Note:

  • If you don’t have canned coconut cream, refrigerate a can of full-fat coconut milk so that the water and cream separate, then just use the cold cream and discard the water or save for another use.
