- 1 tsp ground ginger

Steps for Sugar-Free Christmas Cookies
Place the room temperature butter cut into pieces, eggs, and stevia into the bowl of your stand mixer. Attach the flat beater and run on speed 2 for 2 minutes.
Then, add the flour and spices to the mixer bowl, run the mixer again on speed 2 for 4 minutes, turn off, and transfer the dough onto your work surface. Shape it into a loaf, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rest in the fridge for 1 hour or in the freezer for 30 minutes.
After resting, take the loaf, roll it out with a rolling pin to a thickness of 1/8 to 3/16 inches, using a little flour if needed, cut circles 1 1/2 to 2 inches in diameter, re-knead the scraps, roll them out and cut them again until the dough is all used up. You should end up with 20 dough disks from this recipe.
Place the dough disks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, use the stamp to imprint the design on each cookie, preheat the electric oven to 392°F, and once hot, bake for 20-25 minutes. After baking, remove from the oven, let cool, and serve! Enjoy my sugar-free Christmas cookies!
