• In a mixing bowl, creme together the butter and sugar alternative.
• Once the butter and sugar alternative is creamed together, add the egg, vanilla extract ,and milk and mix for about 10 seconds until somewhat mixed in.
• Slowly pour in half of the contents from the first bowl (flour etc), mix for a few seconds and then add the remaining contents from the first bowl.
• Cover the dough and refrigerate the dough for at least a couple of hours. You can skip this step if you are simply going to roll the cookies into a ball and press them flat for baking.
• When you are ready to bake the cookies, Preheat your oven to 350 and prep a pan for nonstick.
• Roll out the dough (a portion at a time works best) and cut into shapes, use a cookie press, or simply place flattened balls onto the pan.You can use a cookie press like one of these. Or, you can use a cookie cutter, such as one of these cookie cutters, to make a special cookie as well.
