- In a large bowl, beat the butter, almond butter and sweetener until smooth. Beat in the eggs, Yacon, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add the almond flour mixture and continue to beat until the dough comes together.
- Roll into 1 inch balls and place a few inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
