Keto Almond Pinwheel Cookies

These cookies are super easy and fun to make. They are made with a homemade almond paste-like dough. Half is left as a plain almond and the second is mixed with dark cocoa powder. Both are rolled thin and then placed one on top of another, then rolled into a log. When sliced, they become pinwheels. Bake until soft or bake a few minutes longer for a shortbread texture.
