These were a complete mess! Followed instructions and they turned into a gummy mess:(. Disappointed cause these are expensive ingredients but I think there's too much butter and putting them in the freezer make it worse. I will try again cause my sons on the SCD but increase almond flour, decrease butter and let cool on counter. These spread to very thin cookies so leave tons of room.
