After reading comments and making these – I added 2 oz cream cheese to the mix and they came out nice – still a tad dry. I also changed the buttercream filling and used heavy cream and added 1/4 c white chocolate. Came out thicker and a little less sweet. Overall these are very sweet so when I make them again I will reduce the sweetener. I made them a little big and only ended up with 26 cookies (13 sandwiches) so next time I will roll out the dough very thin and use a cookie cutter.
Do not waste your time and expensive ingredients making the Snickerdoodle recipes. They came out crumbling and dry. I should have known cuz I cooked with coconut flour in the past and I know that it’s a dry ingredient it needs alit of moisture or fat.
This recipe actually sucks! Do not try it!!!
This is obviously something that somebody wrote and never made themselves. Ratios are completely off. Pure coconut flower makes them fall apart. Do not use this recipe. Do not try to modify it. I mean milk instead of heavy cream? ? I went off the comments and modified it but it’s still terrible. Almond flour or a mix is probably better.
This recipe is crap! Do not waste your time and valuable ingredients! Seriously I wish I would’ve read the comments before I wasted my time. I threw away the whole batch. Cookies turned out mushy and the taste was no good. The center frosting was runny no matter what I did to save it. In so disappointed :(
This recipe is absolute garbage. Do not waste your expensive ingredients. The cookies are dry, overly sweet and disgusting.
Personally would not make this recipe again. The dough was sooo crumbly prior to baking so I added about 1 tbsp of heavy cream to try and give it some moisture. After baking and cooling, the dough continued to crumble making it difficult to do anything with. The filling was too sweet (and I LOVE sweets) so I wish I could have lessened the swerve by quite a bit. I ended up adding a lot of heavy cream to the filling too to try to lessen the sweetness. All in all, not the best recipe and it’s hard to justify… Read more »
I made these adjustments after reading several of the comments. I adjusted the Swerve to 1/2 c. Added a 1/2 c. of butter to keep the liquid measure the same. The cookies were delightfully sweet without being overwhelming. I also reduced the Swerve in the icing to a 1/4 c. Also, it only made about 18 sandwich cookies with the 1″ scoop. The only other suggestion I would offer is give them plenty of time to cool. They were very crumbly as long as they were warm.

Not sure why you’d use milk!! If you use heavy whipping cream, my carb manager calculates 1 carb per cookie and basically nothing for the frosting. Milk sugar will getcha.
