                        \r\n
                      1. Add almond flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda and espresso powder (optional) to a medium bowl. Whisk until thoroughly combined and set aside.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
                      2. Begin to cream butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer, 1-2 minutes. Add in sweetener and continue to beat until thoroughly mixed and much of the sweetener has dissolved (3-5 minutes).<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
                      3. Add in egg, mixing until just incorporated. The mixture will appear slightly \u2018broken\u2019.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

                      6. Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F\/180\u00b0C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
                      7. Roll out the dough between two pieces of parchment paper until nice and thin. Cut out the rounds.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
                      8. Transfer cutout cookies onto the prepared baking tray and place in the freezer for 15 minutes prior to baking.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
                      9. Bake for 8-12 minutes. Since the cookies are dark already and you can\u2019t guide yourself by color, we suggest doing a trial with one cookie if possible. When ready, the cookies will be puffed, but you\u2019ll want to push the baking time to get them nice and crisp. So just keep an eye out for them.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
                      10. Allow to cool for ten minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely, as they\u2019ll continue to crunch up (this may take a few hours).<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
                      11. To make the vanilla cream filling, cream butter and coconut oil (or more butter) in a medium bowl with an electric mixer. Add in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, and mix until fully incorporated. Add powdered sweetener to taste and mix until fully incorporated and light and fluffy in texture.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
                      12. Spread or pipe vanilla cream onto a cookie and put on a second cookie. Refrigerate until set.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
