Butter cookies are an easy-to-make Keto treat, so I have kicked it up a notch by using my tried and true butter cookie recipe with an Italian flare. These cookies pair well with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate. The sesame seeds give these cookies a slight crunch on the outside, but they are […]
Let me just say that corn is not an allowed food on a Keto diet, but when fresh corn is in season, I have to make my creamed corn. My maternal grandmother taught me how to make corn like this, so I let myself have it every once in awhile. Ingredients 2-3 cups fresh corn […]
