Yesterday I actually managed to get another Christmas cookie recipe done. Despite a nasty cold that got a grip on all of us and those last Advent calendar preparations on which I didn’t even get started yet. The idea for the advent calendar for my girls is to create one without sweets and useless toys that will break faster than they can get their little hands on them. Instead I’m counting on time presents and careful selected useful little gifts. I want to give them extra time for cozy afternoons, Christmas cookie baking and crafting and Christmas movie evenings with hot cocoa. I realise more and more how important it is to actually schedule your quality time as time gets just lost otherwise in the hectic day to day life. Do you feel the same? How often Christmas time has gone by in the blink of an eye and you missed out on all those moments. That’s why I am making this a priority in the advent calendar this year and surely in the years to come.<\/p>\n

But here is the promised Christmas cookie recipe for you guys. Healthier almond crescents without sugar. There are not many ingredients used \u00a0in this recipe and you don’t even need flour, making these cookies free of gluten too. I used honey marzipan here and no additional sweeteners but if you can’t find it, regular marzipan works as well. Just keep in mind that it’s no longer sugar free then.<\/p>\n

If you do like it sweeter then use 2-3 tablespoons coconut sugar int the dough. I think those cookies look quite fancy but are quite simple to make. By the way, if you want a larger quantity of cookies just use smaller dough portions and you can double the cookie quantity.<\/p>\n

Wishing you a beautiful first Advent weekend with your loved ones!<\/p>\n
