Process Steps
- Preheat oven to 450°F
- In a large bowl put 1.5 Cups Carbalose flour
- Add 1 Cup Splenda Sweetener and stir well with a fork

- Make a "well" in the dry ingredients and pour the Extract/Creamer blend in
- Stirring from the outside in with the fork, mix the ingredients until "grainy"
- Once all the ingredients are in the dough, use a grater and grate the 4.5 Tablespoons of chilled butter into the dough, turning the dough with the fork about half way through the butter.
- Once all butter is grated into the dough, use the fork and mix until is is "marbled"
