Well these Low Carb Almond Ricotta Cookies are delicious!! They are soft, cake texture, lovely almond flavor and they will satisfied that sweet tooth. I know its crazy to be doing a cookie recipe in the middle of the summer but I needed something sweet so I would not get into those high carb desserts. Now my husband eats what ever is put in front of him or he is always going to the grocery store coming home with all high carb desserts. He eats all my low carb food and all his high carb foods.
