There’s no egg in the recipe but an egg in the photo? I’m researching some recipes and thought no egg was unusual.

I’m going to attempt to make a low carb version of this. I can’t have more than 9 grams of sugar per serving.

LOVELY!!I made 6 of these to share amongst my family and they were divine! The cookies were chewy and lemony, and the tartness of the cream cheese buttercream mixed with the sweetness of the blackberry jelly perfectly. Everyone ate theirs in a sitting and they were so good that they were worthy of a fork! Honestly, I think this is the best crumbl recipe I have tried by far!!

The recipe lists poppy seeds but I don’t see any poppy seeds in the cookies. Will you please confirm?
Reply
Chahinez
The poppyseeds are optional. Crumbl had them in their cookie so you can add them in the cookie dough to get something more similar or you can omit them to get something like the images from this blog post.

The cookie base doesn’t need vanilla extract?
Reply
Chahinez
No need for vanilla extract. It is mainly lemon juice, zest, and flavoring.
