Hacked 'Sugar' Cookies (Sugar/Gluten Free/Low Cal)

I made these back during Christmas as a challenge to make a low calorie sugar cookie. I dug around the Internet to see now if I converted an existing recipe if it would work better. This is a tweaked version of one. 200 calories and about 10 cookies (good sized ones)

Ingredient

Food ration :

10 servings

1/4 cup

coconut flour (140 cals)

1/4 cup

yogurt (35 cals)

6 Tablespoons

erythithol/trulia (effectively 0 cals) - to taste

3 Tablespoons

egg whites (25 cals)

1/2 teaspoon

vanilla

1/4 teaspoon

baking powder

1/2 teaspoon

baking soda

1/8 teaspoon

salt

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Pre heat oven to 375. Use a tablespoon to pluck down each cookie, spread them out about an inch and half so apart. Press them down a little as well. However be gentle, they will be very light and will indeed swell a bit when baked.

* Step 2

Bake for about 15 minutes (cookies should generally start to get some browning on top not just edges.)

* Step 3

Open the oven and turn it off, let the oven cool off with the cookies inside. Leave them like this for about 10 minutes.

* Step 4

Pull them out and let them cool. Coconut flour is finicky about drying out, this extra drying step should allow them to solidify a bit more (and weirdly increase density).
